A geometry model for tortuosity of tortuous streamtubes in porous media with spherical particles is proposed based on the assumption that some particles in a porous medium are unrestrictedly overlapped and hence of different configurations. The proposed model is a function of porosity with no empirical constant imposed on it. The model predictions are found to be in good agreement with the available experimental data.
