Description
The research focused on the simulation of the previous experiment described by Princ et al. (2020). The relationship between entrapped air content (ω) and the corresponding satiated hydraulic conductivity (K) was investigated for two coarse sands, in the experiment. Additionally the amount and distribution of air bubbles were quantified by X-ray computed tomography.
The pore-network model based on OpenPNM platform (Gostick et al. 2016) was used to attempt simulation of a distribution of the entrapped air bubbles after infiltration. Satiated hydraulic conductivity was determined to obtain the K( ω ) relationship. The results from pore-network model were compared with the results from experiments. The using of special pore network, corresponds to distribution obtained by CT imaging, leads to obtaining satisfying results from simulations.
