DESCRIPTION:
A large list of 66 papers and books is included at the end of the book. It is excellently written and readable. "In the reviewer's opinion, this book provides a fundamental and comprehensive presentation of the mathematical and physical theory of multiphase flow, pointing out several important practical applications. Numerical solutions are given graphically and in tabular form. Some chapters of the book present the state-of-the-art reviews, and they provide a solid background for future research." - Ioan Pop, Zentralblatt MATH . The book will be useful to a wide range of specialists working in the area of flows in porous media, such as design engineers, physicists, chemical engineers, and also to researchers interested in the applied mathematical theory of flows in porous media.

Both the continuum and conventional porous media formulations are subsets of the novel porous media formulation. The concept of directional surface porosities eliminates the sole reliance on empirical estimation of the distributed resistance of complex-shaped structures often involved in the analysis. Most practical engineering problems involve many complex shapes and sizes of solid internal structures whose distributed resistance is impossible to quantify accurately. The novel porous media formulation uses the concept of volume porosity, directional surface porosities, distributed resistance, and distributed heat source and sink. Moreover, fluid-structure interactions are explicitly accounted for in this formulation.. The novel porous media formulation represented a new, flexible, and unified approach to solve real-world engineering problems. Sha first proposed the novel porous media formulation in an article in Nuclear Engineering and Design in 1980. William T. The directional surface porosities thus greatly improve the reso
