Computational Model of Porous Media Using True 3-D Images

Abstract: Thermally conductive foams are being developed for many engineering applications; and there is a need to develop analytical models to predict the thermal properties of such porous media. Most of the current models are based on volume averaging techniques, and often assume simple, ideal shapes for the pore geometry. The method described in this chapter focuses on modeling the thermal and flow properties of foams on the basis of its true microstructure. The approach is to take a three dimensional solid model of … Show more

“…In these cases, it is necessary to investigate the thermal profile in CNT/SiC foams or monoliths and to optimize the preparation in relation to this aspect, but this is an area scarcely investigated. Current advances in CFD (computational fluid dynamics) of porous media 184 should be integrated into design of CNT/SiC foams or monoliths to optimize the performances.…”

“…The correlation function is isotropic and exponentially dacaying, with a decay length l c = 4p x . Thus, the sample size can be expressed as [128l c ] 3 . The second one is a Bentheim sandstone (BS), with porosity 0.232, studied in [32].…”

“…Examples of applications can be found in [4,10,11,18,30] for [P/P], in [3,7,32] for [D/P] and in [6,11,14,21,26] for [D/D]. Although the idea of a self-consistent scheme is very common in theoretical models for the conductivity of composites such as those of Bruggeman [8] or Landauer [19], it seems that its numerical counterpart [E+P] has not been implemented in earlier works for the upscaling of conduction properties (but it is in [14] for the upscaling of the Stokes flow equations).…”
