This volume contains the invited lectures presented during the
NATO/ASI conducted in Pullman, Washington, July 9-18, 1989. This is
the third in a series of NATO/ASIs on transport phenomena in porous
media. The first two, which took place at Newark, Delaware in 1982
and 1985, are devoted to various topics related to the Fundamentals
of Transport Processes in Porous Media. The contents of the books
resulting from previous NATO/ASIs are given at the end of this
book. Transport of extensive quantities such as mass of a fluid
phase, mass of chemical species carried by a fluid phase, energy
and electric charge in porous media, as encountered in a large
variety of engineering disciplines, is an emerging
interdisciplinary field. The groundwater flow, the simultaneous
flow of gas, oil and water in petroleum reservoirs, the movement
and accumulation of pollutants in the saturated and unsaturated
subsurface zones, thermal energy storage in reservoirs, land
subsidence in response to charges in overburden loads, or to
pumping of fluids from underground formations, wave propagation in
seismic investigations or as produced by earthquakes, chemical
reactors, water flow through sand filters and the movement of
fluids through kidneys, may serve as examples of fields in which
the theory of transport in porous media is employed.
