The rapid growth of literature on convective heat and mass transfer
through porous media has brought both engineering and fundamental
knowledge to a new state of completeness and depth. Additionally,
several new questions of fundamental merit have arisen in several
areas which bear direct relation to further advancement of basic
knowledge and applications in this field. For example, the growth
of fundamental heat transfer data and correlations for engineering
use for saturated media has now reached the point where the
relations for heat transfer coefficients and flow parameters are
known well enough for design purposes. Multiple flow field regimes
in natural convection have been identified in several important
enclosure geometries. New questions have arisen on the nature of
equations being used in theoretical studies, i. e. , the Validity
of Darcy assumption is being brought into question; Wall effects in
high and low velocity flow fields have been found to play a role in
predicting transport coefficients; The formulation of transport
problems in fractured media are being investigated as both an
extension of those in a homogeneous medium and for application in
engineering systems in geologic media and problems on saturated
media are being addressed to determine their proper formulation and
solution. The long standing problem of how to adequately formulate
and solve problems of multi-phase heat and mass transfer in
heterogeneous media is important in the technologies of chemical
reactor engineering and enhanced oil recovery.
