A Novel Analytical Model for Pore Volume Compressibility of Fractal Porous Media

Over the past decades, many scholars have been studying the pore volume compressibility (PVC) of porous media. However, the fundamental controls on PVC of porous media are not yet definitive. Some scholars suggest a negative correlation between PVC and initial porosity, while others suggest a positive correlation. Motivated by this discrepancy, this paper presents a new analytical model to study the PVC of fractal porous media. The predictions...
