This can be opened in for example Fiji/ImageJ. - The directory "clearFrame" contains a high-quality pre-scan taken before the main experiment, which was registered and resampled to the time frame images, in the same format and with the same voxel size as the time frame images. - The directory "SegmentedImage" contains two binary 3D images (same format as images before) which was created by segmenting the clearFrame image. There are two versions: the original segmentation, and a version where pores were eroded. The eroded segmentation was used to mask the pore space during particle detection (this avoids spurious detections near pore walls, caused by minor mis-alignments of the clearImage). - The original segmentation was used as input to simulate the velocity fields in the directory "simulatedVelocityFields", which contains 3D .tif images that represent the three components of the velocity vector field (the X-direction was the axis of the sample, equaling the flow direction). There is also an input text file and an output text file. The simulation was performed with the code from single-phase OpenFOAM implementation from Ali Raeini and others at Imperial College London: http://www.imperial.ac.uk/earth-science/research/research-groups/perm/research/pore-scale-modelling/ - The trackingOutput folder contains the experimentally determined velocity points (.csv, only particles that could be tracked at least 20 time frames) and the experimentally determined velocity magnitude field (.tif, voxel size 23.6 µm)
