Pore scale flow and transport in porous media

Principal investigator: Edo BOEK
Reactive flow in natural porous medium showing wormhole formation from Lattice-Boltzmann simulations.  Concentration of protons for Pe = 80 at different times: a) 19min, b) 2.7hr, c)  5.4hr.Multi-scale imaging and simulation of transport and flow in porous media. This includes reactive, multi-component and multi-phase flow using micro-fluidics, rheology, micro-CT, lattice-Boltzmann and MD. At QMUL, this is extended to novel materials for batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors. See also https://www.researchgate.net/project/Pore-scale-flow-and-transport-in-porous-media
