I do not believe we have covered the divergence theorem yet. But I am somewhat familiar with it. But i believe the theorem requires integration, but the problem I am trying to solve does not

Hey, Chet I got some feed back and this is what my TA said: I would not suggest that approach. Your assumptions are more applicable for a cylinder rather than a sphere, and also ignore the 'no coordinate system' requirement. A different relationship to couple with Darcy's law will probably...

Hey, thanks for the reply. This is what I have done so far: We know, Darcy's law: u' = -k/u*grad(P) So, my thought process is: 1.) We assume steady flow and flow in one direction (linear). 2.) Using the relationship that fluid velocity (u') = Q/A 3.) we get, Q = -kA/u * grad(P) 4.) We know...

Homework Statement Using Darcy’s law, plus another appropriate relationship, derive a single equation for the pressure distribution in a porous material. Your equation should be stated in terms of generic operators (i.e. without assuming any specific coordinate system) and allow for the fact...
