Gas Transport in Porous Media
This book presents a compilation of state-of-the art studies on gas and
vapor transport processes in porous and fractured media. A broad set of
models and processes are presented, including advection/diffusion, the
Dusty Gas Model, enhanced vapor diffusion, phase change, coupled
processes, solid/vapor sorption, and vapor-pressure lowering.
Numerous
applications are also presented that illustrate these processes and
models in current problems facing the scientific community. This book
fills a gap in the general area of transport in porous and fractured
media – an area that has historically been dominated by studies of
liquid-phase flow and transport. This book identifies gas and vapor
transport processes that may be important or dominant in various
applications, and it exploits recent advances in computational modeling
and experimental methods to present studies that distinguish the
relative importance of various mechanisms of transport in complex media.
Audience: Researchers and graduate students in soil science, hydrology,
civil engineering, and mechanical engineering, government institutions,
national laboratories, practicing environmental engineers and
engineering consultants, students with a basic background in
thermodynamics and fluid mechanics
