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...
