size_to_satn

size_to_satn(size, im=None, bins=None, mode='drainage')

Converts size map to a saturation map

Parameters:

• size (ndarray) – The image containing invasion size values in each voxel. Solid should be indicated as 0’s and uninvaded voxels as -1.

• im (ndarray, optional) – A binary image of the porous media, with True indicating the void space and False indicating the solid phase. If not given then it is assumed that the solid is identified as size == 0.

• bins (array_like or int (optional)) – The bins to use when converting sizes to saturation. The default is to create 1 bin for each unique value in size. If an int is supplied it is interpreted as the number of bins between 0 and the maximum value in size. If an array is supplied it is used as the bins directly.

• mode (str) –

  Controls how the sizes are converted to saturations. The options are:

  mode	Description
  ’drainage’	The sizes are assumed to have been filled from largest to smallest, ignoring 0’s and -1’s
  ’imbibition’	The sizes are assumed to have been filled from smallest to largest, ignoring 0’s and -1’s

Returns:

satn – An ndarray the same shape as size but with size values replaced by the fraction of void space invaded at each size, according to the specified mode. Solid voxels and uninvaded voxels are represented by 0 and -1, respectively.

Return type:

ndarray

Notes

If any -1 values are present in size the maximum saturation will be less than 1.0 since this means that not all wetting phase was displaced.
