This study reveals that fracture surface geometry significantly impacts electroosmotic phenomena. Fracture surface amplitude and roughness are key factors, leading to a unified relationship for electroosmotic coupling coefficients.

Area of Science:

  • Geophysics
  • Fluid Mechanics
  • Surface Science

Background:

  • Electroosmotic phenomena are crucial in fluid transport through fractured media.
  • Understanding the influence of fracture geometry on these phenomena is essential for various applications.
  • Previous studies have explored electroosmosis in fractures, but a comprehensive analysis of geometric effects is lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically investigate the impact of geometrical parameters on electroosmotic phenomena in fractures.
  • To analyze the influence of surface amplitude and roughness (Hurst exponent) in self-affine fractures.
  • To develop a unified relationship for electroosmotic coupling coefficients based on a characteristic length scale.

Main Methods:

  • Numerical investigation of electroosmotic phenomena in the linear limit.

  • Systematic study of geometrical parameters for deterministic sinusoidal and random self-affine fractures.
  • Analysis of double-layer thicknesses and their effect on electroosmotic processes.

    • Main Results:

    • Fracture surface amplitude demonstrably influences electroosmotic processes.
    • For self-affine fractures, the Hurst exponent has a greater impact than the correlation parameter between surfaces.
    • A single relationship, dependent on a characteristic length scale (Lambda), unifies electroosmotic coupling coefficients across different fracture configurations.

    Conclusions:

    • Fracture geometry, particularly surface amplitude and roughness, plays a critical role in electroosmotic phenomena.
    • The identified characteristic length scale provides a generalized approach to understanding electroosmotic coupling in fractures.
    • The derived relationship differs from that observed in porous media, highlighting unique aspects of fractured systems.
