Biphasic flow: structure and upscaling, consequences on macroscopic transport properties
Renaud Toussaint, Knut Jørgen Måløy, Yves Méheust +4
In disordered porous media, two-phase flow of immiscible fluids (biphasic flow) is organized in patterns that sometimes exhibit fractal geometries over a range of length scales, de…
Using synchrotron X-ray scattering to study the diffusion of water in a weakly-hydrated clay sample
Y. Meheust, B. Sandnes, G. Lovoll +6
We study the diffusion of water in weakly-hydrated samples of the smectite clay Na-fluorohectorite. The quasi one-dimensional samples are dry compounds of nano-layered particles co…
Influence of pore-scale disorder on viscous fingering during drainage
Renaud Toussaint, Grunde Løvoll, Yves Méheust +2
We study viscous fingering during drainage experiments in linear Hele-Shaw cells filled with a random porous medium. The central zone of the cell is found to be statistically more…
Growth activity during fingering in a porous Hele Shaw cell
Grunde Lovoll, Yves Meheust, Renaud Toussaint +2
We present in this paper an experimental study of the invasion activity during unstable drainage in a 2D random porous medium, when the (wetting) displaced fluid has a high viscosi…
