In this article we present a review of the single-phase flow of non-Newtonian fluids in porous media. The four main approaches for describing the flow through porous media in general are examined and assessed in this context. These are: continuum models, bundle of tubes models, numerical methods and
The conditions for expecting a similarity solution on the lines of d'Arcy's Law for non-Newtonian flow in porous media are examined. A modified d'Arcy Law can be expected for a power law fluid. If the viscometric data does not indicate a power law fluid one cannot find a simple solution for calculat
