Abstract: Momentum transport in porous media exists in numerous engineering and process applications, e.g., ground water pollution, storage of nuclear waste, heat exchangers, and chemical reactors. In many ...

Abstract: Metal and graphite foam are relatively new types of porous materials characterized by having high-solid phase conductivities. In many cooling applications of these materials, including high-power ...

Abstract: In certain contemporary technologies, porous media with high solid-phase conductivity are impregnated with low-conductivity fluids, e.g., metal and graphite foam cooled by air. For such cases, an ...

Abstract: Wind-tunnel steady-state unidirectional pressure-drop measurements for airflow through nine compressed and uncompressed isotropic open-cell aluminum foam samples, having different porosities and pore ...
