Description of the voxel evolution scenarios and their volume fraction (%) computed based on the whole CT images in the course of the polymer-gel treatment within the sample R1.
Evolution of voxel-type | Evolution scenario description | Physical interpretation of the evolution scenario | Volume fraction (%) |
---|---|---|---|
Pore-to-pore | Voxels that belong to the pore space from the beginning to the end | Unaltered pore space | 0.4646 |
Pore-to-solid | Voxels which are initially in the pore space but will finally be in the solid phase. | Gel-induced pore blockage | 0.0605 |
Solid-to-pore | Voxels which are initially in the solid phase but will finally be in the pore space | Pore expansion (solid deposition) | 0.0423 |
Solid-to-solid | Voxels that belong to the solid phase from the beginning to the end | Unaltered solid phase | 0.4326 |
