Relative permeability as a stationary process: energy fluctuations in immiscible displacement
James E. McClure, Ming Fan, Steffen Berg +4
Relative permeability is commonly used to model immiscible fluid flow through porous materials. In this work we derive the relative permeability relationship from conservation of e…
Universal description of wetting on multiscale surfaces using integral geometry
Chenhao Sun, James McClure, Steffen Berg +2
Hypothesis Emerging energy-related technologies deal with multiscale hierarchical structures, intricate surface morphology, non-axisymmetric interfaces, and complex contact lines w…
Energy-conserving formulation of the two-fluid model for incompressible two-phase flow in channels and pipes
J. F. H. Buist, B. Sanderse, S. Dubinkina +2
We show that the one-dimensional (1D) two-fluid model (TFM) for stratified flow in channels and pipes (in its incompressible, isothermal form) satisfies an energy conservation equa…
Capillary fluctuations and energy dynamics for flow in porous media
James E. McClure, Steffen Berg, Ryan T. Armstrong
Capillary energy barriers have important consequences for immiscible fluid flow in porous media. We derive time-and-space averaging theory to account for non-equilibrium behavior a…
A novel pressure-free two-fluid model for one-dimensional incompressible multiphase flow
B. Sanderse, J. F. H. Buist, R. A. W. M. Henkes
A novel pressure-free two-fluid model formulation is proposed for the simulation of one-dimensional incompressible multiphase flow in pipelines and channels. The model is obtained…
Transient structures in rupturing thin-films: Marangoni-induced symmetry-breaking pattern formation in viscous fluids
Li Shen, Fabian Denner, Neal Morgan +2
In the minutes immediately preceeding the rupture of a soap bubble, distinctive and repeatable patterns can be observed. These quasi-stable transient structures are associated with…
