Entering parameters at CFX's porous domain
 

Hi. I want to simulate a real scale heat exchanger in CFX by using a porous domain in CFX.

In CFX's porous domain, I have to enter the parameters like porosity, permeability, loss coefficient.

But there is no information about how can I calculate these parameters.

I want to enter the parameters by using correlation based on real heat exchanger's experiment data : pressure drop, heat transfer rate, Reynolds number etc.

How can I calculate the accurate correlation to input the real experiment data?

What's the correlation about permeability and loss coefficient?

Please help me.

Thank you
