Essentials of Multiphase Flow and Transport in Porous Media

Beschreibung

This book looks at the mathematical physical rationale behind the equations that are currently used to describe the flow of fluid and transport of solutes in porous media. It presents a comprehensive approach to the development of appropriate equations without prior knowledge of continuum mechanics, mixture theory, or similar areas of expertise.
