Porous Material
Add a Porous Material node () under a Materials node in a model component to add a definition of a porous material. In the settings for this node you can define the porosity of the porous material, or you can right-click the Porous Material node to add Fluid, Solid, and Immobile Fluid nodes as required and define the porous material properties in those subnodes.
Porosity
If you have not added any subnode for defining the porous material, enter a value or expression between 0 and 1 in the εp field. Otherwise, depending on the added subnodes, the corresponding expression for the porosity of the porous material appears here.
Material Contents
The table here contains the material properties defined here — that is, the porosity.
Nonporous Material Setting
From the Material list, choose the material to represent the nonporous material.
Depending on the added subnodes, the following section can also appear:
Immobile Phase Definition
The table here lists the subnodes with their materials and volume fractions.
For the Appearance settings, see Appearance.
