Abstract:Based on the fractal theory, the spherical seepage for Newtonian fluids in porous media is investigated. The permeability model for spherical seepage in porous media is developed in this paper. The effect of microstrucural parameters of porous media on the permeability is analyzed. The results show that the radial permeability for spherical seepage in the porous media increases with the increases of the pore area fractal dimension and the porosity, and decreases with the increases of the tortuosity fractal dimension and the radial distance. We also compare our permeability model for spherical seepage with Chang and Yortso's model. A good agreement is obtained between them.
