Extended poromechanics for adsorption-induced swelling prediction in double porosity media: modeling and experimental validation on activated carbon

Résumé

Natural and synthesised porous media are generally composed of a double porosity: a microporosity where the fluid is trapped as an adsorbed phase and a meso or a macro porosity required to ensure the transport of fluids to and from the smaller pores. Zeolites, activated carbon, tight rocks, coal rocks, source rocks, cement paste or construction materials are among these materials. In nanometer-scale pores, the molecules of fluid are confined. This effect, denoted as molecular packing, induces that fluid- fluid and fluid-solid interactions sum at the pore scale and have significant consequences at the macroscale, such as instantaneous deformation, which are not predicted by classical poromechanics. If adsorption in nanopores induces instantaneous deformation at a higher scale, the matrix swelling may close the transport porosity, reducing the global permeability of the porous system. This is important for applications in petroleum oil and gas recovery, gas storage, separation, catalysis or drug delivery. This study aims at characterizing the influence of an adsorbed phase on the instantaneous deformation of micro-to-macro porous media presenting distinct and well-separated porosities. A new incremental poromechanical framework with varying porosity is proposed allowing the prediction of the swelling induced by adsorption without any fitting parameters. This model is validated by experimental comparison performed on a high micro and macro porous activated carbon. It is shown also that a single porosity model cannot predict the adsorption-induced strain evolution observed during the experiment. After validation, the double porosity model is used to discuss the evolution of the poromechanical properties under free and constraint swelling.
