description Capillary pressure curves, which have been employed for a long period of time by researchers interested in pore size distribution, are commonly obtained from experimental measurements. The dynamic capillary pressure that influences the flow is affected by many factors including the pore size characteristics and pore scale dynamics. Hence, it is important to investigate the variation of the estimated pore size distribution with capillary number. In this study, a glass type micromodel is considered as the porous media sample. A parametric probability density function is proposed to express the pore size distribution of the porous model, which is also measured using an image analysis technique. The capillary pressure saturation mathematical model is developed by integrating the pore size distribution function. Model parameters with a physical significance are estimated by fitting the model to the measured capillary pressure data at different capillary numbers. The results of capillary pressure obtained are well matched to the measured values. The results show that the trends of the extracted pore size distribution curves have similar trends, but they are not exactly the same. Therefore, the dynamic capillary pressure data alone are not sufficient for estimation of the pore size distribution. As a related development, the prediction of the capillary pressure curves based on measured pore size distributions is also presented. The proposed probability distribution function has the flexibility of representing a wide variety of pore size distributions. A glass type micromodel is considered as a porous media sample and a parametric probability density function is proposed to express the pore size distribution, which is also measured using an image analysis technique.
