Abstract:Pore Network Models (PNMs) provides a computationally efficient approach to model porous media. A PNM employs a network representation of the pore space, where individual pores are taken as nodes of the network and are connected by constrictions which are edges of the network. In assemblies of spheres, this network representation is often achieved using Delaunaybased tessellation methods. Fluid flow is simulated in the network model using a Stokes flow algorithm which solves for continuity at each node in the … Show more
