Local thermodynamic description of isothermal single-phase flow in porous media
Olav Galteland, Michael T. Rauter, Mina S. Bratvold +3
Darcy's law for porous media transport is given a new local thermodynamic basis in terms of the grand potential of confined fluids. The local effective pressure gradient is determi…
Defining the pressures of a fluid in a nanoporous, heterogeneous medium
Olav Galteland, Michael T. Rauter, Kevin K. Varughese +2
We describe the thermodynamic state of a single-phase fluid confined to a porous medium with Hill's thermodynamics of small systems, also known as nanothermodynamics. This way of d…
Legendre-Fenchel transforms capture layering transitions in porous media
Olav Galteland, Eivind Bering, Kim Kristiansen +2
We have investigated the state of a nanoconfined fluid in a slit pore in the canonical and isobaric ensembles. The systems were simulated with molecular dynamics simulations. The f…
Nanothermodynamic description and molecular simulation of a single-phase fluid in a slit pore
Olav Galteland, Dick Bedeaux, Signe Kjelstrup
We describe the thermodynamic state of a highly confined single-phase and single-component fluid in a slit pore using Hill's thermodynamics of small systems. This theory was more r…
