Computing and Comparing Effective Properties for Flow and Transport in Computer-Generated Porous Media

Figure 2

Permeability-porosity trend for in-line array of circles (i.e., infinitely long cylinders). Permeability units are nondimensional (i.e., unit length unit length). The permeability is isotropic and is normalized by , where is the solid circle radius. Gebart’s [47] analytical solution was given in (A.2).
