Thus most of the avalanches take place after the connected cluster is formed. This demonstrates that system has large avalanches near its critical pressure and behaves similarly right before and right after connected cluster formation. Thus only a few percent of the pores in the system form the connected cluster that spans the system. Size distributions for avalanches before and after connected cluster formation. Pores containing vapor are red, while pores containing fluid are blue.
Sinks are on the closer side of the lattice.
Section of connected cluster of pores containing vapor after it spans the model material. The same section of model material with pores containing fluid shown. Small slice of 51x51x51 cubic lattice after connected cluster is formed. The section is on the side of the material opposite of sinks.
