Characterising the porosity of multi-component mixtures in rotary mills

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Porosity, or fractional void volume, is a simple but powerful quantity used in describing porous media. Characterising this very important parameter is vital to understanding key processes that occur in porous media, such as fluid transport. This is because porosity is strongly related to the permeability of porous media.
