Dear Foamers,

I want to simulate the flow in a porous media.
I have already tried using fvOptions with help of Darcy Forchheimer law.

Inlet-->--Water-->--Porous-->--Water-->--Outlet


It certainly produced a pressure difference at both ends of the porous.
But, it did not produce a velocity change in the porous.

What should I do to vary the flow velocity according to the volume fraction of the porous media?
e.g. U_porous = U_inlet / Porosity

Thank you.
