An ultrasonic reflected wave at oblique incidence by porous medium with rigid frames is considered using equivalent fluid model. The viscous and thermal losses of the medium are described by two susceptibility kernels which depend on the viscous and thermal characteristic lengths. Analytical derivation of reflection coefficient is given in frequency domain. The simulated reflected wave is obtai...

The flow past an impermeable sphere embedded in a fluid saturated porous medium was studied numerically considering valid the Brinkman−Forchheimer−Darcy (or Brinkman−Hazen−Dupuit−Darcy) model. The flow is viscous, laminar, axisymmetric, steady and incompressible. The porous medium is isotropic, rigid and homogeneous. The stream function vorticity equations were solved numerically in spherical c...

In this contribution, mathematical model for the description of solvent evaporation and noble metal crystallization in a porous medium is presented. The methodology is based on the volume-of-fluid method and the aim is validation of the model by comparing the numerical simulation results with analytical solutions for evaporation from a single pore and for particle growth and Ostwald ripening of...

The theory of sound propagation in macroscopically isotropic and homogeneous porous media saturated with superfluid 4 He has been developed neglecting all damping processes. The case when the normal fluid component is locked inside a porous medium by viscous forces is investigated in detail. It is shown that in this case one shear wave and two longitudinal, fast and slow, waves exist. Fast wave...

An analysis is performed to study the heat transfer characteristics of steady mixed convection flow over a permeable vertical flat plate embedded in an anisotropic fluid-saturated porous medium. The effects of uniform suction and injection on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics are numerically studied by employing an implicit finite difference Keller-box method. It is found that du...

dense medium cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. it is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in dmcs complex. in this article the flow pattern simulation of dmc is performed with computational fluid dynamics and fluent...

An analysis is carried out to study the heat transfer in unsteady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) second grade fluid over a porous oscillating stretching surface embedded in porous medium. The flow is induced due to infinite elastic sheet which is stretched periodically. With the help of dimensionless variables, the governing flow equations are reduced to a s...

This paper investigates the influence of double dispersion and viscosity on natural convection heat and mass transfer from vertical cone in a non-Darcy porous medium saturated with non-Newtonian fluid. The surface of the cone and the ambient medium are maintained at constant but different levels of temperature and concentration. The Ostwald-de Waele power law model is used to characterize the n...

The purpose of this study is to quantify experimentally the evolution of dissolved species in porous media from 2D resistivity models. Transport experiments are carried out at the laboratory scale by performing flow in a model porous medium obtained by filling a transparent container with mono disperse glass beads. A tracer made by mixing a dissolved of blue dye and a known NaCl concentration i...
