Hydrate-Bearing Sand

This project includes high resolution micro-CT images of one xenon hydrate growth experiment in sand. Data are from a paper by Xiongyu Chen, Rahul Verma, D. Nicolas Espinoza and Masa Prodanovic, published in Water Resources Research in 2018, titled "Pore-Scale Determination of Gas Relative Permeability in Hydrate-Bearing Sediments Using X-Ray Computed Micro-Tomography and Lattice Boltzmann Method" Conditions for xenon hydrate growth in sand: T=23C, P_initial =3.72 MPa. Aqueous phase is 10wt% NaBr brine. The image stack is taken with X-ray uCT after 4 days of hydrate growth. Resolution =28.77 um.

本项目包含一项砂土中氙水合物生长实验的高分辨率显微CT（micro-CT）图像。数据源自陈雄宇、Rahul Verma、D. Nicolas Espinoza与Masa Prodanovic于2018年发表于《Water Resources Research》的论文，题为《基于X射线显微CT与格子玻尔兹曼方法（Lattice Boltzmann Method）测定含水合物沉积物中气相对渗透率的孔隙尺度表征》。砂土中氙水合物生长的实验条件为：温度T=23℃，初始压力P_initial=3.72 MPa，水相为10wt%溴化钠（NaBr）盐水。该图像序列于水合物生长4天后通过X射线显微CT采集，图像分辨率为28.77 μm。
