Permeability of porous media

Surface tension is responsible for capillary effects and spreading of the NAPL over the water table. At about 20°C, water has a surface tension of 73.05 dyn/cm, whereas CC14 has a surface tension of only 26.95 dyn/cm. Therefore, water will be held in an unsaturated porous media by surface tension to a much greater degree relative to carbon tetrachloride (i.e., the permeability of porous media will be different with respect to each liquid). The ramifications will be important for contaminant transport of mixed wastes.

Mechanical degradation of polymer is much more severe at higher flow rates, longer flow distances, and lower brine permeabilities of porous media. In a lower-permeability porous medium, the average pore throat diameter is smaller, and the stress acting on the polymer is larger. Thus, it is more probable for the polymer chains to be broken and the viscosity to be more heavily reduced. Similarly, we can understand the effects of flow rate and flow distance.

For a given system, Eq. (6.9) predicts that the rate of consolidation increases with an increase in the permeability of the cast Kc. Various models have been put forward to account for the permeability of porous media. One of the most popular, based on its simplicity and its ability to outline the key parameters, is the Carman-Kozeny equation ...

The dynamics of fluids in porous media have been the subject of numerous theoretical and experimental studies because of their importance for engineering and environmental applications. In package dyeing, the dye liquor or air must be distributed evenly within a package and also between one package and another. This means that the fluid must flow at the same rate throughout the porous spaces of the fibrous assembly. This section briefly discusses the main features of porous media, the permeability of porous media and fluid flow patterns in yam packages.
