Is the flow across the pipes or along the pipes?...

Is the flow across the pipes or along the pipes? This will change the diameter to be used. Also, ergun equation is only for spherical particles, for cylinders, you may have to use the appropriate...

Yes,
You can still use the porous zone model for the membrane, since the membrane is porous anyway.
If the membrane is homegeneous and symmetric, you can use the same resistance values in all...

It should be noted that the porous domain calculation in Fluent is an approximate one: It just adds a momentum sink in 3 directions due to the inertial and viscous resistance.
The mesh type will...

Hi,
The Ergun equation assumes that the bed is filled with uniform sized and shaped particles. The sphericity parameter is used as a conversion factor for non-spherical particles (comparing the...

Hi,
You are right.
Resistance is the inverse of permeability. It is normally in the range of 1e+6 to 1e+10 m2.

Viscous and Inertial Resistances

The viscous and inertial resistances to flow in a porous medium can be calculated from the Ergun equation, which gives the total pressure drop through a porous medium.
Check any book on fluid...
