Abstract:
The heterogeneity and multi-scale characteristics of porous media (such as soil aquifers) bring a series of uncertainties in studying flow and solute transport. In particular, the mathematical representation of these physical processes at different temporal and spatial scales, that is, the constitutive equations and parameters, is largely varied, which creates grand challenges in multi-scale modeling and numerical simulation of flow and solute transport in porous media. In recent years, we acknowledge that at-scale models and simulations have been greatly progressed, which means that at each individual scale, the transport phenomena, numerical methods, and solvers have been developed and utilized at different levels. However, the long-standing problem, scale coupling between the pore- and Darcy-scale in porous media, has not been well resolved. In this review, we present an overview and classification of the current multi-scale models, aiming to understand small-scale flow and solute transport processes when/where needed in a larger system.
