We show that the flux through a poroelastic material is a super-linear function of the pressure-difference. The permeability is a universal function of the ratio of the pressure-difference over the shear modulus, proportional to the cube of porosity.

For liquid–porous material interactions (LPMI), three variational principles are developed in Biot's theory of porous materials in association with Darcy's Law. First one takes solid acceleration, and fluid velocity, acceleration, pressure with time derivative as five variables, while second and third, respectively, have three and two variables when Darcy's Law used as variational constraint reducing variables. These principles provide a means to derive approximate solutions and finite-element (FE) models for LPMI. Each LPMI element includes fluid and solid together with it being no longer necessary to distinguish fluid domain from solid. Examples illustrate applications to establish FE model for numerical solutions of LPMI. Solution of a one-dimensional problem reveals that LPMI behaves a coupled-frequency separation measured by a defined-coupling factor. Dynamic response explores coupled-dynamic absorber mechanism in LPMI system, from which it is found that the external force at fluid does not contribute to fluid response but fully absorbed by solid local resonance if the force frequency equals the solid natural frequency; while in the reverse case when the force frequency equals the fluid one, the force at solid does not produce the solid response but fully absorbed by fluid local resonance. New findings with defined LPMI coupling factor provide guidelines for designing LPMI system with expected dynamic behaviour meeting engineering requirements.

AbstractThis study investigates by nonlinear constitutive equations the influence of tipping paper, cigarette paper, filter, and tobacco rod on the degree of filter ventilation and draw resistance. Starting from the laws of conservation, the path to the theory of fluid dynamics in porous media and Darcy's law is reviewed and, as an extension to Darcy's law, two different nonlinear pressure drop-flow relations are proposed. It is proven that these relations are valid constitutive equations and the partial differential equations for the stationary flow in an unlit cigarette covering anisotropic, inhomogeneous and nonlinear behaviour are derived. From these equations a system of ordinary differential equations for the one-dimensional flow in the cigarette is derived by averaging pressure and velocity over the cross section of the cigarette. By further integration, the concept of an electrical analog is reached and discussed in the light of nonlinear pressure drop-flow relations. By numerical calculations based on the system of ordinary differential equations, it is shown that the influence of nonlinearities cannot be neglected because variations in the degree of filter ventilation can reach up to 20% of its nominal value.
