Introduction to the Thermodynamically Constrained Averaging Theory for Porous Medium Systems

Thermodynamically constrained averaging theory provides a consistent method for upscaling conservation and thermodynamic equations for application in the study of porous medium systems.  The method provides dynamic equations for phases, interfaces, and common curves that are closely based on insight...
