Research Advance in Fluid Flow through a Single Rock Fracture

Article Preview

Abstract:

Flow properties through a single rock fracture are the foundation of researching fluid flow in fractured rock masses. Many researchers at home and abroad are engaging in this subject for the urgent need of engineering practice. This article mainly introduces concepts of roughness, aperture, tortuosity, channeling flow, and influencing factors of stress, temperature, anisotropic, inlet head, scale effect, solution etc. Finally, some research work should be done in future are given.
