Porous media problem......

HPerea · March 23, 2009, 15:27

Hi Everybody,

I would like to simulate irrigation well drawdown in an anisotropic porous media (2 different porous material); well has a gravel envelope where Non-Darcian flow is presented (turbulent flow). The flow in the second material can be described by Darcy's law. Could someone tell me which free code software I can use to accomplish this simulation?

Is there a free code software that I could use?

Is there a software that solves Darcy-Brinkman-Forchheimer equation?

Regards

Fluent will solve porous media problems. Jiang and whitaker have some good papers dealing with porous media flow as well.

Hi Mettler;

Could you give the citation of one of Jiang and Whitaker's papers, please?

Thanks for your answer.
