Influence of porosity and direction of flow on tortuosity in unconsolidated porous media

Journal Article Salem, H S ; Chilingarian, G V - Energy Sources

Tortuosity {tau} is defined as the square of the ratio, {phi}-range of the effective length of pore channels to the length parallel to the overall direction of the pore channels in a porous medium. It has significance in interpreting the hydraulic and electric properties of porous media. In this study, experimental results of tortuosity and porosity {phi} were investigated in relation to different directions of flow in various unconsolidated porous media. When the media (mica, textile fibers, kaolinite, and bituminous soil, with a high {phi}-range of {approx}60--90%) are exposed to flow perpendicular to the planes and fibers, {tau} responds positivelymore »« less

ARDISC (Argonne Dispersion Code): computer programs to calculate the distribution of trace element migration in partially equilibrating media

Technical Report Strickert, R ; Friedman, A M ; Fried, S

A computer program (ARDISC, the Argonne Dispersion Code) is described which simulates the migration of nuclides in porous media and includes first order kinetic effects on the retention constants. The code allows for different absorption and desorption rates and solves the coupled migration equations by arithmetic reiterations. Input data needed are the absorption and desorption rates, equilibrium surface absorption coefficients, flow rates and volumes, and media porosities.

TSOAK-M1: a computer code to determine tritium reaction/adsorption/release parameters from experimental results of air-detritiation tests

Technical Report Land, R. H. ; Maroni, V. A. ; Minkoff, M.

A computer code has been developed which permits the determination of tritium reaction (T/sub 2/ to HTO)/adsorption/release and instrument correction parameters from enclosure (building) - detritiation test data. The code is based on a simplified model which treats each parameter as a normalized time-independent constant throughout the data-unfolding steps. Because of the complicated four-dimensional mathematical surface generated by the resulting differential equation system, occasional local-minima effects are observed, but these effects can be overcome in most instances by selecting a series of trial guesses for the initial parameter values and observing the reproducibility of final parameter values for cases wheremore »« less

Numerical results obtained from the three dimensional transient single phase version of the COMMIX computer code

Technical Report Domanus, H M ; Schmitt, R C ; Sha, W T

Results from the first three applications of the three-dimensional, transient, single-phase version of the thermal-hydraulics computer code, COMMIX, are presented. The applications include an LMFBR outlet plenum, a horizontal pipe, and a 19-pin LMFBR hexagonal fuel assembly. Each case is described and the results presented. All three applications use liquid sodium as the fluid. The plenum and pipe analyses are transient, while the fuel assembly involves a steady-state analysis.
