Effect of Convergence Factors on Flow through Porous Media in Converging Boundaries
摘要
Flow behavior through porous media with converging boundaries is analyzed theoretically, and the modifications in the Forchheimer equation needed to incorporate the effect of convergence are brought out. An experimental investigation on the effect of convergence factors on the linear parameter a and nonlinear parameter b was carried out in a convergent flow permeameter, and the influence of convergence factors on the resistance law relating friction factor (fk) and Reynolds number (Rek) using the square root of intrinsic permeability as the characteristic length is examined. In the present case, crushed rock of sizes 3.48 and 4.93 mm were used as media and water as fluid, to study the variation of friction factor and Reynolds number with different ratios of the width and with convergence factors.
