About the PoreLab laboratories at UiO
Our 4 specialized laboratories at UiO are equipped with a wide set of state-of-art techniques to study the dynamics and structure of flow in 2D and 3D porous media. We have a full range of high-resolution and high-speed imaging techniques, including 2 ultrafast Photron Ultima (SA5 and APX) cameras with 7000 fps. at a spatial resolution of 1024x1024 pixels and up to 1 million fps. at a reduced resolution. We have also a high resolution FLIR SC300 infrared camera used for real-time measurements of heat dissipation in fractures, hydro-fractures and porous media flows and a wide variety of DSLR cameras and accompanying optics. Microscale experiments can be imaged via far field microscopy using a Zeiss Stemi 2000-C distortion-free stereo microscope which couples to our high-speed and high-resolution cameras and is in process of being upgraded for enhanced magnification. Flicker-free illumination sources tailored for the different applications (including high-speed microscopy) are also available. Additionally, our laboratories include a large set of different optical equipment, such as lasers with different intensities and wavelengths, lenses and other optical components, cameras and microscopes for Particle Image Velocimetry. We are also well-equipped to perform homodyne correlation spectroscopy for the measurement of particle velocity fluctuations in fluids, diffusion constants and viscosities.
