2.2 Structural characteristics of porous media
A material that contains plenty of pores (or voids) between solid
skeleton through which fluid can transport.
Two necessary elements: skeleton and pores;
Skeleton: maintain the shape
Pores: provide pathway for fluid flow through

2.2.1 Porosity
The volume ratio between pore volume and total volume
Shale: <10% GDL: >70%
Porosity maybe vary from near zero to almost unity. Shale has
low porosity, around 5%. Fiber-based porous media can have a
porosity as high as 90%.

2.2.1 Porosity
Direct method: measure the bulk volume of a porous sample
and then somehow destroying all the voids and measuring the
volume of the only solids.
Optical methods: if the porous structure is random, then the
porosity equals the “areal porosity”. The areal porosity is
determined based on the polished sections of the sample

To make the pores more visible, pores
are often impregnated with wax, plastic
or Wood’s metal. Connected and isolated
pores can be distinguished.
Depending the resolution of the
experimental techniques. Pores under the
resolution can not be identified.15/40

Imbibition method :
a) immersing the porous sample in a perfectly wetting fluid for
a sufficiently long time, the wetting fluid will imbibe into the
pores.;
b) weight the sample before and after the imbibition, with the
density of the fluid, the volume of the pores can be
determined;
c) or displace the wetting fluid out of the porous medium and
measure the volume of the fluid.

Mercury injection method:
Most of the materials are not wetted by mercury

Hydraulic pressure in the chamber containing both porous
medium and the mercury. As a result, the mercury will enter the
pores. If the pressure is sufficiently high, mercury will penetrate
into very small pores.

The penetration is never quite
complete as it requires infinite
pressure o perfectly fill all the
edges and corners of the pores.
High pressure will change or
even damage the structures of

Calculate according to the Equation of State

Gas in one chamber with a porous medium is expanded to
another chamber. When equilibrium state is reached, the
pressure is measured. With known volume of the two chambers,
the volume of the porous medium can be determined.

Theoretically, one can divide the connected pores into infinite
slice and determine the averaged diameter of each slice (volume
averaged, area averaged…). However, such theoretical definition
can not be practically implemented.

2.2.2 Specific surface area
Defined as the ratio between total surface area to the total
volume.
An important parameter for porous media as one of the
important type of porous media is catalyst, which requires high
specific surface area for reaction.

2.2.4 Tortuosity
Tortuosity: defined as the actual length traveled by a particle to
the length of the media
𝜏 =𝐿𝑖𝐿 𝐿
𝐿𝑖
Tortuosity is thus transport dependent, including flow,
diffusion, heat transfer, electrical conduct, acoustic transport.
For fluid flow it is “hydraulic tortuosity”
For diffusion it is “diffusivity tortuosity”
For electron transport, it is “conductivity tortuosity”

2.4.1 Permeability
o Permeability, an indictor of the capacity of a porous medium
for fluid flow through
o In 1856, Darcy noted that for laminar
flow through porous media, the flow
rate <u> is linearly proportional to
the applied pressure gradient Δp, he
introduced permeability to describe
the conductivity of the porous media.
The Darcy’ law is as follows
o q flow rate (m/s), μ the viscosity, pressure drop Δp, length of
the porous domain l, k is the permeability.

Validation of Darcy’s law
o Darcy’s law is only valid for incompressible, slow and viscous
flow (creeping flow), where fluid flow is dominated by viscous
force.
o Typically any flow with Re lower than one is clearly laminar.
Experimental results show that porous flow with Re up to 10
can be described by Darcy’s law.
𝑅𝑒 =ρ𝑢𝑑
μ< 10
o Most of fluid flow in porous media cases fall in this category.
Example: fluid flow in gas diffusion layer of a PEMFC;
ground water under subsurface…

o β is referred to as the beta factor (non-Darcy coefficient). The
first term account for the viscous contribution to the pressure
drop, where the second accounts for the inertial effect.
o For flow with very high rate, inertial effects can also become significant.
Therefore an inertial term is added to the Darcy’s equation.
