Abstract:Visualization experiments in a model porous medium are presented in this work to study the interplay between salt precipitation and gas–liquid displacement during evaporation for the drying situation characterized by a receding sharp drying front. Various types of salt subflorescence are distinguished depending on the location of the subflorescence growth, namely, away from the drying front in the region predominantly occupied by gas or in the liquid-saturated region. A distinction is also made regarding the s… Show more
