Transport Phenomena in Porous Media — Basic Equations

  • Chapter
Fundamentals of Transport Phenomena in Porous Media

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 82))

Abstract

The objective of this review is to present the methodology of developing the complete description of transport phenomena in a multiphase, deformable porous medium, and to demonstrate this methodology by applying it to the transport of such extensive quantities as volume, mass, component of a phase, momentum and heat.
