Geologic Fluid Dynamics & Geofluids 지질유체역학 연구실

We seek to understand coupled processes with emphases on subsurface fluid transports in heterogeneous porous media; non-isothermal multiphase and reactive transport, compressible gaseous flow, density-dependent flow in geologic environments.

Geologic fluids group focuses on environmental, climate change, and energy related research such as geologic CO2 sequestration, geysers dynamics, density-dependent flow, fault hydrologeology, and geothermal energy development with an emphasis in multi-phase phenomena, reactive transport modeling, and heat transport. The methods we prefer range widely, from analytical and numerical approaches to field applications.

Thus, research includes interdisciplinary approaches, integrating elements of fluid transport in porous media, hydrogeochemistry, geology, thermodynamics, and petroleum engineering.
