Suppose you have a cylindrical column filled with packed, irregularly shaped particles. The bottom of the cylinder is flat and closed except for an array of small circular holes, regularly spaced except for a ring around the edge of the bottom where there are no holes. So, holes everywhere on the bottom except within some distance of the edge. If you force water through this bed would the flow through the outermost holes be faster than through the centermost holes?
