Simulation of local transfer in periodic porous media

The present paper continues investigations devoted to the application of the homogenization method to transport theory in porous media. The method of solving so-called local problems of gas dynamics over a periodic cell has been developed there. Solution of the problems allows us to find accurate local distributions of velocities and pressures inside a separate pore, and also to evaluate the gas-permeability coefficient when only the geometric shape of pores is known. Computed results are shown and compared with experimental data.
