Transient forced convection in an isothermal fluid-saturated porous medium layer: effective permeability and boundary layer thickness

Transient forced convection in an isothermal saturated porous-medium layer is analyzed analytically on the basis of the Forchheimer-Brinkman-extended Darcy equation. An analytical solution describing the transient regime is obtained by considering the ensemble average velocity of the fluid flow as m...
