A numerical study of inertial flow features in moderate Reynolds number flow through packed beds of spheres

Creator:

Finn, Justin Richard

Abstract:

In this work, flow through synthetic arrangements of contacting spheres is studied as a model problem for porous media and packed bed type flows. Direct numerical simulations are performed for moderate pore Reynolds numbers in the range, 10 ≤ Re ≤ 600, where non-linear porescale flow features are known to...

Upscaling non-Darcy flow using mixed finite element method

Creator:

Garibotti, Cristiano Rodrigues

Abstract:

In this paper we develop an upscaling technique for non-Darcy flow in porous media. Non-Darcy model of flow applies to flow in porous media when large velocities occur. The well-posedness results for theory of quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations. To discretize the model we used lowest order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite...
