...Ashreet Mishra; David Korba; Inderjot Kaur; Prashant Singh; Like Li High-porosity metal foams have been extensively studied as an attractive candidate for efficient and compact heat exchanger design. With the advancements in additive manufacturing, such foams can be manufactured with controlled...

... on the mean velocity and is found to be inversely proportional to the Reynolds number, the Darcy number, and the mean velocity. The analytical results are verified by experiments using two types of metal foam. In the Darcy regime, reasonably good agreement is found between the analytical and the experimental...
