ADVANCES OF FRACTAL ANALYSIS OF TRANSPORT PROPERTIES FOR POROUS MEDIA

In this paper an overview of recent advances made in predicting transport properties such as permeability, thermal dispersion conductivity and thermal conductivity for porous media is presented. In this review, the theoretical basis for the fractal analysis is addressed, including the analytical expressions for fractal dimensions of porous media, a criterion on whether a medium can be analyzed by fractal theory and technique, and fractal statistical properties of porous media. Several fractal models are presented and reviewed. These include fractal permeability models and fractal thermal conductivity models for porous media. The predictions from the fractal models are compared with experimental data, and good agreements are found. Comments and suggestions are made with respect to the theoretical studies that should be made in this area in the future.
