The simulation results using i- V relationship of non-Darcy flow through tide embankment by Li et al.(1998) agree well to the observed data. The use of i- V relationship is applicable to the engineering practice and the correct input of porosity is necessary. The non-Darcy flow based on the pipe flow and Taylor's definition for mean hydraulics radius in rockfill material is applicable to the block and caisson materials. The correct calculation of flow through tide embankment enables the accurate calculation of velocity at final closing gap and the prediction of inner water level after tide embankment construction as well.

Rocks are dumped to soft marine ground in order to improve trafficability and construction conditions in the tideland reclamation construction sites. Though this rock layer under earth fill has caused in a serious seepage problems after construction, seepage behaviors of this embankment structure is not correctly investigated. Water flow through rock layers is, in general, known as Non-Darcy's flow. However, the embedded rock layer under earth fill is not known whether its flow is governed by Darcy's or Non-Darcy's law. Therefore, a numerical analysis, laboratory model test and filed investigations were performed for analyzing the those seepage characteristics in this research. Results show that there is significance of $95\%$ of confidence between observed heads and seepage rates, and the calculated ones by SAMTLE which is developed under the assumption that the water flows through the two-layer system obey the Darcy's flow. And after operating the hydraulic gradient(i) of $0.10\~0.55$ upon laboratory model, these seepage characteristics of the embedded rock layer show that Reynolds Numbers are less than 10 and the relationship between these velocities of rock layer(v) and hydraulic gradients(i) is linearly proportional with more than 0.79 of the coefficient of correlation $(R^2)$. And the Reynolds Number of the velocity calculated by the relation of v=ki in the embedded rock layer of OO sea dike is $1\~6$. It shows also laminar flow. Based on these results, it is concluded that the seepage characteristics of embedded rock layer under earth fill can be laminar and Darcy's flow.

Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis Sieb.et Zucc.) boards of 30 mm thickness were treated by steaming and four different drying methods. Small specimens were taken from the sapwoods of the treated boards and their longitudinal liquid permeability was measured according to Darcy's law. The specimens were also extracted with alcohol and aceton solutions to examine the mechanism of liquid flow in wood. It was observed that specific permeability drastically decreases with measurement time, resulting in violation of Darcy's law. It may be due to that air bubbles formed under vacuum block flow paths in resin canals. The average specific permeabilities of non-extracted and extracted specimens are different from one treatment to another. It is supposed that the properties of residual resin in resin canals change depending on the conditions of treatments. Anatomical examination was conducted with a scanning electron microscope.

For the purpose of studying on the seepage characteristics of embedded gravel layer in embankment, laboratory model tests were carried out. The embedded layer under embankment was $19{\sim}26mm$ diameter of gravel and those embankment materials were Saemangum dredged sand, river sand and mixed(1:1) sand with dredged and river one. Those permeability coefficients of three different sands are $5.00{\times}10^{-5}$, $3.00{\times}10^{-4}$, $7.50{\times}10^{-5}m/s$, respectively. Seepage characteristics of these results are as follows; 1) The Reynolds number of water flow through embedded gravel layer in three different permeable soils is less then 10, it is laminar flow. 2) These flow velocities through embedded gravel layer in soils are in proportion to these hydraulic gradients, it is Darcy flow. 3) These Darcian permeability coefficients of water flow through embedded gravel layer in soils show as $2.95{\times}10^{-3}$, $1.38{\times}10^{-2}$, $3.33{\times}10^{-3}$m/s, respectively, by varying permeability of embankment soils and embankment lengths. It is approximately 100 times of those permeability coefficients of embankment materials.

산지계곡에는 큰 자갈이나 호박돌이 무더기로 퇴적되어 있어서 대규모 공극을 구성한다. 호우시 이 돌무더기 내부에 빠른 흐름이 형성되고 이에 따른 퇴적사면의 급격한 변동이 발생하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 대공극 매질의 흐름은 산지계곡에 퇴적된 균일 직경을 가진 구형 입자로 구성된 대규모 공극 매질을 구성하고, 비 Darcy 흐름의 유속에 미치는 입경의 영향을 수리실험으로 조사하였다. 실험에 사용된 구형 입자는 크기가 15.5mm, 25mm, 36.5mm인 유리구슬이고, 조성된 매질의 공극율은 Table 1과 같으며, 실험에서 침투거리는 40cm로 하였다. 실험유량은 0.98~15.41 t/s이고 입자 Reynolds 수는 120~4,580의 범위였다. 동수경사가 증가하면 매질의 단면평균 유속이 비선형적으로 증가하였다. 입경이 작을수록 유속과 동수경사 사이의 비선형적 경향이 더 크다(Fig.1). 동일한 동수경사에서 매질의 입경이 클수록 유속이 빠르게 나타났다.

An experimental investigation was carried out for 4 different types of the aluminum foam heat sinks which were inserted into the annulus. The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of a heat sink with high performance forced convective water cooling in the annulus. The local wall temperature distribution, inlet and outlet pressures and temperatures, and heat transfer coefficients were measured for heat flux of 13.6, 18.9, 25.1, 31.4 $kW/m^2$ and Reynolds number ranged from 120 to 9,000. Experimental results show that the departure from the Darcy's law is evident from the pressure loss and the friction factor is much higher while the significant enhancement in Nusselt number is obtained, and average Nusselt number of aluminum foam with high pore density is much higher than that of aluminum foam with low pore density. Correlations for the friction factor is proposed and used for design of thermal applications.

The flow analyses through a porous hydraulic fractures is among the most important tasks in recently developed shale reservoirs but is rendered difficult by non-Darcy effects and geometric changes in the hydraulic fractures during production. In this study, several Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) models of hydraulic fractures, with a simple shape such as that of parallel plates, filled with proppants were built. Direct Numerical Simulation(DNS) analyses were then carried out to examine the flow loss characteristics of the fractures. The hydraulic diameters for the simulation models were calculated using the DNS results, and then they were compared with the results from Kozeny's definition of hydraulic diameter which is most widely used in the flow analysis field. Also, the characteristic parameters based on both hydraulic diameters were estimated for the investigation of the flow loss variation features. Consequently, it was checked in this study that the hydraulic diameter based on Kozeny's definition is not accordant to the results from the DNS analyses, and the case using the CFD results exhibits f Re robustness like general pipe flows, whereas the other case using Kozeny's definition doesn't. Ultimately, it is expected that discoveries reported in this study would help further porous flow analyses such as hydraulic fracture flows.

A linear stability analysis applied to a system consist of a horizontal fluid layer overlying a layer of a porous medium affected by a vertical magnetic field on both layers. Flow in porous medium is assumed to be governed by Darcy's law. The Beavers-Joseph condition is applied at the interface between the two layers. Numerical solutions are obtained for stationary convection case using the method of expansion of Chebyshev polynomials. It is found that the spectral method has a strong ability to solve the multilayered problem and that the magnetic field has a strong effect in his model.

A micro-mechanical pipe network model with the shape of a cube was developed to simulate the behavior of fluid flow through a porous medium. The fluid-flow mechanism through the cubic pipe network channels was defined mainly by introducing a well-known percolation theory (Stauffer and Aharony, 1994). A non-uniform flow generally appeared because all of the pipe diameters were allocated individually in a stochastic manner based on a given pore-size distribution curve and porosity. Fluid was supplied to one surface of the pipe network under a certain driving pressure head and allowed to percolate through the pipe networks. A percolation condition defined by capillary pressure with respect to each pipe diameter was applied first to all of the network pipes. That is, depending on pipe diameter, the fluid may or may not penetrate a specific pipe. Once pore pressures had reached equilibrium and steady-state flow had been attained throughout the network system, Darcy's law was used to compute the resultant permeability. This study investigated the sensitivity of network size to permeability calculations in order to find out the optimum network size which would be used for all the network modelling in this study. Mean pore size and pore size distribution curve obtained from field are used to define each of pipe sizes as being representative of actual oil sites. The calculated and measured permeabilities are in good agreement.

When yields the mean velocity of the closed conduit which is used generally, it is available to use Darcy Weisbach Friction Loss Head equation. But, it is inconvenient very because Friction Loss coefficient f is the function of Reynolds Number and Relative roughness (${\varepsilon}$/d). So, it is demanded more convenient equation to estimate. In order to prove the reliability and an accuracy of Chiu's velocity equation from the research which sees hereupon, proved agreement very well about measured velocity measurement data by using Laser velocimeter which is a non-insertion velocity measuring equipment from the closed conduit (Laser Doppler Velocimeter: LDV) and an insertion velocity measuring equipment and the Pitot tube which is a supersonic flow meter (Transit-Time Flowmeters). By proving theoretical linear-relation between maximum velocity and mean velocity in laboratory flume without increase and decrease of discharge, the equilibrium state of velocity in the closed conduit which reachs to equilibrium state corresponding to entropy parameter M value has a trend maintaining consistently this state. If entropy M value which is representing one section is determinated, mean velocity can be gotten only by measuring the velocity in the point appearing the maximum velocity. So, it has been proved to estimate simply discharge and it indicates that this method can be a theoretical way, which is the most important in the future, when designing, managing and operating the closed conduit.
