Convective Plume Spreading in Model Transparent Porous Media
Visualising fluid flow in porous media using optical techniques is challenging due to the inability to see through the medium. Here, we present an experimental methodology based on shadowgraphy to investigate the dynamic spreading of convective plumes in saturated transparent porous media made of glass beads. The saturated porous medium can be tuned transparent by matching the refractive index of the solid glass beads to that of the saturating fluid mixture. The proposed technique allows to investigate the essential elements of convective mixing within a porous medium using miscible fluids. We also describe a method to determine the velocity of convective plumes as they propagate. Our experimental results show that the density difference achieved during convection significantly affects the convective front velocity of the plumes. This is significant because it allows to quantitatively predict the intensity of convective mixing in porous media from the speed of the convective front.

Transport in Porous Media publishes original research on physical and chemical aspects of transport phenomena in rigid and deformable porous media. These phenomena, occurring in single and multiphase flow in porous domains, can be governed by extensive quantities such as mass of a fluid phase, mass of component of a phase, momentum, or energy. Moreover, porous medium deformations can be induced by the transport phenomena, by chemical and electro-chemical activities such as swelling, or by external loading through forces and displacements. These porous media phenomena may be studied by researchers from various areas of physics, chemistry, biology, natural or materials science, and engineering (chemical, civil, agricultural, petroleum, environmental, electrical, and mechanical engineering).
