Dear CFD experts,

I want to simulate a porous zone as black box with porousSimpleFoam and d and f resistance vectors for water flow (nu=1e-6) inside a tube. Geometry is based on following article: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science...94177714001526

Darcy region:
U = 0.001 m/s
K = 6.18 e -9
F = -
d = 1/K = 1.618e8
f = 0

Darcy
L of porous zone = 0.3
deltaP = mu / K * U L = 48 Pa
p/rho = 0.048

My case on dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/pkjvn4xoj...B6RksgpJa?dl=0

My case gives no resistance to flow in the porous region and pressure (e-6) is way too small.

I don't use the parameters correctly?
