Can I model both mercury intrusion and extrusion, or both water retention and drainage ?
No – unfortunately Pore-Cor only fits itself to a mercury intrusion curve (or water retention curve). We have not managed to fit both intrusion and extrusion together yet (or water retention followed by drainage). However, you can see a simulation of extrusion by clicking on the ‘Secondary Imbibition..’ button on the output options screen. It gives you different simulations depending on the snap-off ratio and contact angle hysteresis dialled in. I find the buttons and text very difficult to read.
