Permeability of fibrous porous media

  • 1. Univ. of Toronto, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, Toronto, Ontario (Canada)

Description

A solution of high-molecular-weight polymer can be viewed at the molecular level as a network of entangled chains. during flow, the network deforms and, to understand the hydrodynamic forces involved, the network can be treated as a porous medium. The physical situation is then the flow of a Newtonian fluid through a fibrous porous medium of low density. The purpose of the present work is to find a relation by both analysis and experiment for a randomly-oriented fibrous porous medium
