✦ Synopsis

A new mathematical model of velocity distribution of single-phase fluid flow in packed beds was developed by assuming the flow characteristic is a combination of a continuous and a discontinuous systems of fluids between voids in the bed. The model can be applied for both compressible and incompressible fluids. The validity of the model has been checked using the measured data at inside and downstream of the bed. The agreement between measured data and the results predicted by the model is good. The model compares favourably with previous models in terms of accuracy and simplicity and does not require new empirical constants.

## Abstract The characterization of the flow inside a packed bed requires a full description of the pore geometrical characteristics, and of the flow phenomena at local level. A two‐dimensional (2‐D) network model for describing the flow phenomena in unconsolidated‐packed beds has been developed. T

## Abstract An analysis describing viscoelastic flow of a FENE fluid in packed beds or porous media is presented based on the capillary hybrid model of the flow. A close similarity is revealed between the functional relationship of the reduced elongational viscosity to and that relating the reduced
