(MS17) Complex fluid and Fluid-Solid-Thermal coupled process in porous media: Modeling and Experiment

Oral Presentation

Wicking, the spontaneous movement of liquid into a dry porous medium, is a critical phenomenon with wide-ranging industrial applications. Though wicking under isothermal conditions have been studied/modeled for more than a century, wicking under non-isothermal conditions remains relatively unexplored.

In an earlier study, we proposed, using the sharp-front approximation, three different...

230. Local thermal non-equilibrium processes in porous media: Comparison of different models from the pore- to the REV-scale

(MS17) Complex fluid and Fluid-Solid-Thermal coupled process in porous media: Modeling and Experiment

Oral Presentation

Local thermal equilibrium, meaning an instantaneous heat transfer between different phases, is often assumed when modeling heat transfer in porous media systems. However, for some technical applications as well as environmental systems, such as self-pumping transpiration cooling [2], fuel cells [4] and geothermal systems [3], heat exchange processes between the different phases may be of great...

(MS17) Complex fluid and Fluid-Solid-Thermal coupled process in porous media: Modeling and Experiment

Oral Presentation

Nanoscale confined systems are common in the environment and in many technological innovations. Recent studies have shown that the fundamental properties and reactivity of bulk water or unconfined surfaces change under nanoscale confinement. These confinement-imposed changes, in turn, influence several nanoscale processes. Understanding nanoscale processes within confined systems is important...

344. Stochastic Analysis of Shear-Thinning Fluid Flow and Heat Transport in Geological Fractures

(MS17) Complex fluid and Fluid-Solid-Thermal coupled process in porous media: Modeling and Experiment

Oral Presentation

Engineered shear-thinning (ST) fluids, including polymer-based solutions, attracted considerable interest in subsurface applications for optimizing fluid circulation, transporting remedial amendments, and sweeping non-aqueous liquids in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). In this study, a stochastic analysis based on the Monte Carlo method is carried out to investigate how variations in fracture...

241. Experimental and computational study of solidification of flow in a Hele-Shaw cell

(MS17) Complex fluid and Fluid-Solid-Thermal coupled process in porous media: Modeling and Experiment

Oral Presentation

The warming climate is inducing changes in hydrological processes in the cryosphere that are not well understood. In this context, the proposed work seeks to advance our understanding of the pore-scale physics of fluid flow through subfreezing porous material such as snow, firn and permafrost. Such flow involves the complex interplay amongst interfacial flow (e.g. air-water), phase change...

104. Molecular investigation of pore size redistribution and formation deformation during the CH4 displacement accompany with CCUS in shale under various influencing factors

(MS17) Complex fluid and Fluid-Solid-Thermal coupled process in porous media: Modeling and Experiment

Oral Presentation

The method of carbon dioxide (CO2) injection in shale reservoirs has prevailed in recent decades, attributed to CO2 injection promoting shale gas (CH4) production while being sequestrated to eliminate the greenhouse effect for an environmentally friendly society. However, the efficiency of CO2-enhanced CH4 recovery (CO2-EGR) in shale reservoirs is influenced by geological factors, including...
