DarcyBasisVelocity
velocity of porous material [m/s]
Define the reference velocity of the porous material with index
$Material$:
The law of Darcy models the influence of a porous medium A on a fluid B that flows through A by the addition of a momentum source term to the standard fluid flow equations of B. See
EquationsToSolve for the integration of this source term to the momentum equation and
TwoPhaseDarcy for a more specific example of using Darcy within
MESHFREE.
The magnitude and direction of this source term is dependent on the relative velocity between A and B. Therefore the DarcyBasisVelocity should be defined as a projection of the velocity of the porous medium to the points of the fluid.
The function
projY() can be used to project a
MESHFREE-entity
%ind_Entity% from the porous medium to the fluid (and vice versa).
