Abstract
The pore network model has a good trade-off between the description of the pore-scale phenomena and the computational efficiency and hence is an ideal tool to reveal the multiscale transport processes during evaporation in porous media. To gain a detailed understanding of the evaporation in porous media, an accurate pore network model is needed. In this chapter, the experimentally observed capillary valve effect, continuous and discontinuous corner films, and capillary instability effect are included in the pore network model. The developed pore network models are validated by comparing the modeling results against the experimental data. The developed pore network models can be employed to understand the macro-scale evaporation processes in porous media from the pore-scale perspective.
