Abstract

This study focuses on the determination of the Forchheimer equation coefficients a and b for non‐Darcian flow in porous media. Original theoretical equations are evaluated and empirical relations are proposed based on an investigation of available data in the literature. The validity of these equations is checked using existing experimental data, and their accuracy versus existing approaches is studied. On the basis of this analysis, some insight into the physical background of the phenomenon is also provided. The dependence of the coefficients a and b on the Reynolds number is also detected, and potential future research areas, e.g. investigation of inertial effects for consolidated porous media, are pointed out.

## Abstract In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the three‐dimensional Brinkman–Forchheimer equation. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the equation in __L__^2^, and then show that the equation has a global attractor in __H__^2^ when the ex
