VARIATION OF THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY WITH POROSITY
Abstract: Thermal conductivity in porous media as a function of the grain size and porosity has been studied establishing a relation between these two parameters. The study has been developed for a homogeneous porous medium with grain size in a very close range of particle diameter. The study has been extended from very small particles to large ones, to cover most of the real grain size. As a result of this …

Theoretical modelling of heat transfer in non-homogeneous porous media
Abstract: The paper is focused on the study and analysis of heat transfer in geothermal substrates made up of non-homogeneous porous media. The paper analyses the influence of porosity on the heat transfer as a result of the combination of conduction and convection mechanisms that take place in non-homogeneous porous materials. As a result of the combined effect heat transfer is not homogeneously distributed throughout the cross section of the geothermal …

Numerical Study of Natural Convection Heat Transfer in Porous Particles Through Composite Filters
Abstract: The study of heat transmission through porous materials within the confines of reactor configurations stands as a pivotal realm of inquiry in the realms of engineering and the applied sciences, possessing wide-ranging applications spanning from soil mechanics to the refinement of heat exchange systems. Porous substances, distinguished by their interconnected voids or interstices, present an array of reactor forms that profoundly shape the flow of fluids and the conveyance of …
