A 2D model for coupled heat, air, and moisture transfer through porous media in contact with air channels

A Numerical Modeling for Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Porous Media With Generated Internal Heat Sources

In this paper a numerical method is used to study the unsteady state natural convection heat transfer within a confined porous media with uniform internal heat generation. The governing equations based on the Darcy model and Bossiness approximations are solved, using the finite difference Alternating Direction Implicit (ADI) method. The developed program was used to simulate natural convection ...

MERLOT: A Model for Flow and Heat Transfer through Porous Media for High Heat Flux Applications

Fractal Derivative Model for Air Permeability in Hierarchic Porous Media

and Applied Analysis 3 where k is a constant, α is the fractal dimension, L0 is the smallest measure, and u t is the distance between two points in the porous media. The distance between two points in a discontinuous space is

Underground Coal Fire Extinction Model using Coupled Reactive Heat and Mass Transfer Model in Porous Media

Green house gases emission associated with natural hazard of underground coal seam fire has been recognized as a worldwide problem leading to global warming threat. Therefore, in this paper a model to study underground coal fire is presented and the results will be devoted to strategic development of coal fire extinction technology within the framework of Sino-German Coal Fire Research Initiati...

Heat Transfer in Porous Media

In this work, the effects of electrical double layer (EDL) near the solid/ liquid interface, on three dimensional heat transfer characteristic and pressure drop of water flow through a rectangular microchannel numerically are investigated. An additional body force originating from the existence of EDL is considered to modify the conventional Navier-stokes and energy equations. These modified eq...
