Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) volume-and velocity-measurement techniques are used to probe structure-flow correlations within the interparticle space of a packed bed of ballotini. Images of the three mutually orthogonal components of the velocity field are obtained in two perpendicular slices wit

Different NMR techniques were combined to obtain the structure and velocity information for a systematic investigation of fixed beds with low aspect ratio (tube diameter to particle diamter, d t /d p ) in the range 1.4 to 32. The structure of the void space was determined for a variety of packed bed
## Abstract We present an analysis of how flow oblique to the frequencyβencoding direction generates displacement artifacts in MR imaging and show that for flow which has constant velocity between the start of the phase encoding and the center of the echo it is possible to eliminate these artifacts
identifies pore boundaries as minima in hydraulic radius. The change in pore volume, surface area and shape were all quantified as a function of the compression extent. Such structural characterisation was also performed as a function of height in the compression direction. Finally, the porescale fl
