Dear all:
Now, I try to using the FloEFD to simulate the heat trasnfer of porous medium. I have a question for the thermal conductivity of porous medium. I must input the thermal conductivity of solid or the effective thermal conductivity of solid. If anybody know, please tell me. Thanks. lcweng |

Hi Icweng,
the thermal conductivity is the one from the solid material. That doesn't change because it is a porous medium as it is a material specific parameter. What changes is the density which is why it is refered as "density of the porous matrix". Regards, Boris |
