| Title: | Pipe network model for scaling of dynamic interfaces in porous media | Authors: | Lam, CH Horváth, VK |
Issue Date: | 7-Aug-2000 | Source: | Physical review letters, 7 Aug. 2000, v. 85, no. 6, p. 1238-1241 | Abstract: | We present a numerical study on the dynamics of imbibition fronts in porous media using a pipe network model. This model quantitatively reproduces the anomalous scaling behavior found in imbibition experiments [Phys. Rev. E 52, 5166 (1995)]. Using simple scaling arguments, we derive a new identity among the scaling exponents in agreement with the experimental results. | Keywords: | Boundary conditions Capillarity Computational fluid dynamics Computer simulation Contact angle Interfaces (materials) Mathematical models Numerical analysis Porosity Pressure effects Surface tension Viscosity of liquids |
