V – CONCLUSIONS

/ Part I• Same microscopic physics, different law

structures, with different effective coefficients.

• Evaluating dimensionless numbers ( ) :

macroscopic model catalogue, their effective

parameters and their validity domains are

obtained.

• Physical characteristic values dedicated to the

studied process.

J.-F. Bloch

29

V - CONCLUSION / Part I (2)

• The equivalent description corresponds to a

medium that reacts globally to the considered

physical excitation like the microscopic medium

studied.

• If the medium cannot be homogenised,

macroscopic properties are not intrinsic to the

media.

• Applicable to any porous medium that satisfies

the microscopic hypotheses in use here.

33

I. Context

• Synchrotron X-ray microtomography gives

access to the inner structure of samples at a

micrometric scale

– Quantification of the structure

– Estimation of physical properties

• Comparison to experimental data

J.-F. Bloch

34

I. Position of the problem

• May Physical properties be simulated from

X-Ray microtomography?

• Analysed volume is much smaller than the

characteristic lengths / physical properties?

Problem of the representativity for:

• Porosity and specific surface area

• Effective thermal conductivity and

permeability

III.5. Conclusions

/ Statistical REV

• Estimation of properties on volumes smaller

than the deterministic REV

saving computing time in the case of the

estimation of physical properties

IV.1. Estimation of permeability

• Estimation of tensor of permeability

– No penetration of fluid into fibres

– Pressure gradient is imposed at the interface

– Estimation of the local fluid velocity

– Deducing the permeability
