Short summary
We analyze how chemical reactions and fluid movement in porous materials interact, focusing on how water channels form in underground environments. Using a thermodynamic approach, we track energy dissipation due to fluid friction and chemical reaction, and correlate it with the intensity of the emerged water channels to understand this process. Over time, water channels become more defined, reducing energy dissipation due to mixing, reaction and fluid friction.
