Characterization of Porous Media — Pore Level

Abstract

Pore size and pore size distribution are defined, 1-D pore structure models, 2-D and 3-D network models of pore structure are reviewed. Simulation of capillary pressure and relative permeability curves with the help of network models of pore structure is discussed. Pore structure determination from serial sections is outlined. Phase immobilization technique is reviewed.
