Magnetic resonance imaging application to study of porous media

O. Lamrous , D. Houi , C. Zarcone , J. Pradere

After characterisation of the medical MRI Bruker BMT 100 scanner in the aim of studying porous media, we showed, by means of a model system that it was possible to determine local and overall porosities. We also used this scanner to study the clogging of a column of glass beads by a suspension of microparticles. This application allowed us to check that 3-D information is accessible by MRI.
