Steady-state axisymmetric flows of an incompressible fluid through rotating porous media with regard to the Coriolis force

Abstract

Exact solutions to the problem of steady-state axisymmetric flow of an incompressible fluid through rotating rigid body with regard to the centrifugal and Coriolis forces are constructed. The case of the locally transversally isotropic porous skeleton and the quadratic resistance force in the law of flow is considered. Estimates of the practical applicability of the solutions obtained are given. An analysis of increase in the length of the trajectory of a liquid particle due to its deviation from the radial direction in the frame of reference connected with the skeleton is carried out. This is of interest for applications related to deep-bed filtration of suspensions.
