Capillary bundle model for gravitational flow of emulsion through granular media and experimental validation

摘要

Emulsion flow in porous systems is different from the flow of the individual phases, because there are different mechanisms that must be taken into account when modeling the movement of such liquids. In the literature, there are no mathematical models which take into account phenomena characterizing such flows. The development of such dependence would allow for substantial improvements on the assessment of contamination and facilitate the selection of appropriate methods of soil and groundwater remediation.
