This book was released on 1998-03-31 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porous media, and especially phenomena of transport in such materials, are an impor1ant field of interest for geologists, hydrogeologists, researchers in soil and fluid mechanics, petroleum and chemical engineers, physicists and scientists in many other disciplines. The development of better numerical simulation techniques in combination with the enormous expansion of computer tools, have enabled numerical simulation of transport phenomena (mass of phases and components, energy etc. ) in porous domains of interest. Before any practical application of the results of such simulations can be used, it is essential that the simulation models have been proven to be valid. In order to establish the greatest possible coherence between the models and the physical reality, frequent interaction between numericians, mathematicians and the previously quoted researchers, is necessary. Once this coherence is established, the numerical simulations could be used to predict various phenomena such as water management, propagation of pollutants etc. These simulations could be, in many cases, the only financially acceptable tool to carry out an investigation. Current studies within various fields of applications include not only physical comprehension aspects of flow and energy or solute transport in saturated or unsaturated media but also numerical aspects in deriving strong complex equations. Among the various fields of applications generally two types of problems can be observed. Those associated with the pollution of the environment and those linked to water management. The former are essentially a problem in industrialized countries, the latter are a major source of concern in North-Africa.

This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lattice Boltzmann models simulate solute transport in porous media traversed by conduits. Resulting solute breakthrough curves are fitted with Continuous Time Random Walk models. Porous media are simulated by damping flow inertia and, when the damping is large enough, a Darcy's Law solution instead of the Navier-Stokes solution normally provided by the lattice Boltzmann model is obtained. Anisotropic dispersion is incorporated using a direction-dependent relaxation time. Our particular interest is to simulate transport processes outside the applicability of the standard Advection-Dispersion Equation (ADE) including eddy mixing in conduits. The ADE fails to adequately fit any of these breakthrough curves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 34 of Reviews in Mineralogy focuses on methods to describe the extent and consequences of reactive flow and transport in natural subsurface systems. Since the field of reactive transport within the Earth Sciences is a highly multidisciplinary area of research, including geochemistry, geology, physics, chemistry, hydrology, and engineering, this book is an attempt to some extent bridge the gap between these different disciplines. This volume contains the contributions presented at a short course held in Golden, Colorado, October 25-27, 1996 in conjunction with the Mineralogical Society of America's (MSA) Annual Meeting with the Geological Society of America in Denver, Colorado.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluid flow, solute transport, and chemical reactions in porous media are highly relevant for multiple applications and in several fields of knowledge. Aquifers are a typical example of porous media, but many others exist, like for instance biological tissues or wastewater treatment filters. Modeling and simulation of transport processes in porous media can be done through Lagrangian methods, which have certain advantages with respect to classical Eulerian methods. Among these advantages, a key one is that the solution of the advective transport term does not generate any numerical dispersion or instabilities, not even in those cases that are strongly dominated by advection, as opposed to what happens with classical Eulerian methods. However, the incorporation of chemical reaccions in the Lagrangian modeling context involves additional challenges and considerations with respect to conservative transport modeling. In this thesis, which is presented as a compendium of publications, new techniques are developed for modeling reactive transport of solutes in porous media from a Lagrangian perspective. Throghout the thesis, two different types of numerical particles are studied: mass-particles and fluid-particles. In both cases, continuum-scale dispersion (or at least part of it) is represented by random walks of numerical particles. Also in both cases, reactive transport simulations require interaction between nearby particles, either for directly computing reactions (when mass-particles are used) or for exchanging solutes (in the fluid-particle case). For this reason, a large part of this thesis revolves around the study of kernel functions, whose purpose is to mathematically represent the support volume of (and interaction between) particles. In this thesis it is shown that these functions, optimized using statistical theories of Kernel Density Estimation (KDE), may be used to simulate all kinds of nonlinear reactions with the mass-particle method known as Random Walk Particle Tracking (RWPT). Then, a new approach is developed for locally optimizing the particles' support volume (represented by the kernel bandwidth), such that it adapts its size and shape in time and space to minimize error. Thereafter, this technique is implemented in a hybrid manner in combination with a spatial discretization (binning) to improve its computational efficiency and to allow the incorporation of boundary conditions. Regarding fluid-particles, in this thesis it is shown that two methods that exist in Lagrangian modeling literature (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics or SPH, and Mass Transfer Particle Tracking) are mathematically equivalent, and they only differ in the choice of kernel used for the solute exchange between particles, which simulates dispersive transport. Finally, a novel Lagrangian fluid-particle method is developed, with an algorithm based on Multi-Rate Interaction by Exchange with the Mean (MRIEM), which enables to account for local-scale concentration fluctuation effects, as well as their generation, transport and decay. The method is shown capable of reproducing experimental results of reactive transport in a porous medium with locally mixing-limited conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CLIFFORD K. HOAND STEPHEN W. WEBB Sandia National Laboratories, P. O. Box 5800, Albuquerque, NM 87185, USA Gas and vapor transport in porous media occur in a number of important applications includingdryingofindustrialandfoodproducts,oilandgasexploration,environm- tal remediation of contaminated sites, and carbon sequestration. Understanding the fundamental mechanisms and processes of gas and vapor transport in porous media allows models to be used to evaluate and optimize the performance and design of these systems. In this book, gas and vapor are distinguished by their available states at stan- ? dard temperature and pressure (20 C, 101 kPa). If the gas-phase constituent can also exist as a liquid phase at standard temperature and pressure (e. g. , water, ethanol, toluene, trichlorothylene), it is considered a vapor. If the gas-phase constituent is non-condensable at standard temperature and pressure (e. g. , oxygen, carbon di- ide, helium, hydrogen, propane), it is considered a gas. The distinction is important because different processes affect the transport and behavior of gases and vapors in porous media. For example, mechanisms specific to vapors include vapor-pressure lowering and enhanced vapor diffusion, which are caused by the presence of a g- phase constituent interacting with its liquid phase in an unsaturated porous media. In addition, the “heat-pipe” exploits isothermal latent heat exchange during evaporation and condensation to effectively transfer heat in designed and natural systems.

This book was released on 1999-01-26 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 108. Non-point source (NPS) pollution in the vadose zone (simply defined as the layer of soil extending from the soil surface to the groundwater table) is a global environmental problem. Characteristically, NPS pollutants are widespread and occasionally ubiquitous in extent, thus making remediation efforts difficult and complex; have the potential for maintaining a relatively long active presence in the global ecosystem; and may result in long?]term, chronic health effects in humans and other life forms. Similar to other global environmental issues, the knowledge and information required to address the problem of NPS pollutants in the vadose zone cross several technological and subdisciplinary lines: spatial statistics, geographic information systems (GIS), hydrology, soil science, and remote sensing. Cooperation between disciplines and scientific societies is essential to address the problem. Evidence of such cooperation was the jointly sponsored American Geophysical Union Chapman/Soil Science Society of America (SSSA) Outreach Conference that occurred in October 1997, entitled “Applications of GIS, Remote Sensing, Geostatistics, and Solute Transport Modeling to the Assessment of Non-Point Source Pollution in the Vadose Zone.” The objective of the conference and this book, which was developed from the conference, was to explore current multidisciplinary research for assessing NPS pollution in soil and groundwater resources.
