Fluid flow in compressible porous media: II: Dynamic behavior

• This article deals with the dynamic behavior during filtration and wet pressing of compressible porous media. An equation is developed which permits the derivation of the time dependency of porosity and flow at varying locations in a medium subjected to hydraulic pressure and/or mechanical load. Furthermore, a numerical solution that allows the equation to be solved rapidly and with high accuracy on a common PC is presented. The computer program developed in conjunction with this work has been used to illustrate the dynamics of fluid flow in some industrially important applications, such as wet pressing of paper pulp and flow in chromatography columns. The program has also been used to calculate the flow and concentration variations during mechanical impulse loading (that is, a press pulse).
