effective

effective(network, pore_volume='pore.volume', throat_volume='throat.volume')

Calculate the effective pore volume for optional use in transient simulations. The effective pore volume is calculated by adding half the volume of all neighbouring throats to the pore volume.

Parameters:

network (OpenPNM Network object)

pore_diameterstr

Name of the dictionary key on network containing the ndarray of pore diameter values.

throat_diameterstr

Name of the dictionary key on network containing the ndarray of throat diameter values.
