Permeability Description by Characteristic Length, Tortuosity, Constriction and Porosity
Carl Fredrik Berg
In this article we investigate the permeability of a porous medium as given in Darcy's law. The permeability is described by an effective hydraulic pore radius in the porous medium…

Re-examining Archie's law: Conductance description by tortuosity and constriction
Carl Fredrik Berg
In this article we investigate the electrical conductance of an insulating porous medium (e.g., a sedimentary rock) filled with an electrolyte (e.g., brine), usually described usin…

Local Wettability Reversal during Steady-State Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media
Santanu Sinha, Morten Grøva, Torgeir Bryge Ødegården +2
We study the effect of local wettability reversal on remobilizing immobile fluid clusters in steady-state two-phase flow in porous media. We consider a two dimensional network mode…
