Orthotropic Porous Media Tutorial

This tutorial solves the same problem as the Isotropic Porous Media Tutorial, except that the fluid in the porous region cannot flow in any direction other than the bulk flow (y-) direction. This type of orthotropic porosity is specified by assigning large values to the inertial and viscous resistance components in the cross-flow directions (x- and z- directions in this case). The values of the components in the y-direction are the same as in the Isotropic Porous Media Tutorial, i.e.

kg/m4

and

kg/m3s
