Dual network extraction algorithm to investigate multiple transport processes in porous materials: Image-based modeling of pore and grain scale processes
Khan, Zohaib Atiq; Tranter, Tom; Agnaou, Mehrez; Elkamel, Ali; Gostick, Jeff (Elsevier, 2019-04-06)Image processing of 3D tomographic images to extract structural information of porous materials has become extremely important in porous media research with the commoditization of x-ray tomography equipment to the lab ... -
Mass transfer in fibrous media with varying anisotropy for flow battery electrodes: Direct numerical simulations with 3D X-ray computed tomography
Kok, Matthew D. R.; Jervis, Rhodri; Tranter, Thomas G.; Sadeghi, Mohammad Amin; Brett, Dan J. L.; Shearing, Paul R.; Gostick, Jeff T. (Elsevier, 2019-03-16)A numerical method for calculating the mass transfer coefficient in fibrous media is presented. First, pressure driven flow was modelled using the Lattice Boltzmann Method. The advection-diffusion equation was solved for ... -
A method for measuring relative in-plane diffusivity of thin and partially saturated porous media: An application to fuel cell gas diffusion layers
Tranter, Thomas G.; Stogornyuk, Pavel; Gostick, Jeffrey Thomas; Burns, Alan. D.; Gale, William F. (Elsevier, 2017-07-01)A new experimental technique, extended from similar work on dry materials, is presented for measuring the in-plane components of the relative diffusivity tensor for partially saturated porous media. The method utilizes a ...
