Explore two-phase flow in industrial porous media through a comprehensive lecture by Professor Majid Hassanizadeh from SimTech Center of Excellence at Stuttgart University and Earth Sciences Department at Utrecht University. Delve into the unique challenges and differences between industrial porous media and geosciences, examining various applications such as fuel cells, filtration, paper production, food processing, and moisture absorbents. Discover why traditional geoscience models may not be suitable for industrial processes, considering factors like rapid flow rates, hydrophobic materials, electrochemical reactions, thin porous layers, and complex topologies. Learn about the need for developing specialized theories, models, and measurement techniques for industrial porous media. Gain insights into real-world applications through case studies on ink penetration in paper and liquid distribution in diapers. Understand how two-phase flow formulations should be modified for these unique industrial systems.
