A model of the formation of a porous fibrous cake

A continuous physical cake made up of porous fibrous media can be formed by using air to draw the fibers to a moving screen. A numerical model of the formation of this cake has been formulated and solved. The numerical model is based on solving Darcy’s law, the Bernoulli equation, and two-material r...
