Non Darcian Approach to Flow of an Incompressible Viscous Fluid Between Two Semi-Infinite Parallel Plates Partially Filled With Highly Porous Medium

Abstract

The aim of the present paper is to investigate the flow of an incompressible viscous fluid between two semi-infinite parallel plates. The space between the parallel plates is filled partially with highly porous medium. The flow will be two phase flow one in clear region and an other in porous region. The expressions for fluid velocities in both regions and flow rate are obtained sophisticatedly. The effect of permeability parameter on fluid velocities in both regions are investigated. The results are graphically represented.
