Overview

Analysis reveals the impact of porosity on the transition to inertial regime in porous media, suggesting new inertia indicators.

Key Points

  • The transition from Darcy to inertial regime is influenced by porosity, affecting flow dynamics in porous media.
  • A divergence in tortuosity definitions highlights the complexities of vortex formation as Reynolds number increases.
  • Navier-Stokes equations were numerically solved to explore pore-scale flows, revealing insights into inertia indicators.
  • Various definitions of tortuosity serve as crucial measures of inertia, enabling better application in complex systems.
