Summary

Flow and transport at the interface between a porous medium and a clear fluid are of interest in a variety of engineering applications. Solidification processes, thermal insulation, heat pipes, the interaction of groundwater with surface water and solute exchange in the hyporheic zone are some such examples. This article deals with fluid flow and heat transfer in metal foams in the presence of fluid-porous interfaces.
