Article Synopsis
- The movement of subsurface fluids in processes like CO storage and petroleum engineering is influenced by interfacial forces in rock pores, and new digital modeling techniques help simulate this flow.
- Recent advancements face challenges in accurately characterizing the wetting states within the pore structures.
- This study demonstrates a method to quantitatively map these wetting states in rocks using fluid coverage observations, enabling better predictive models for various applications in multiphase flow scenarios.
