On the flow of fluid in the wedged anisotropic porous domain

Abstract

Solutions to the problem of fluid flow in an anisotropic porous domain, wedged by two vertical planes were developed. The solutions are applicable to all wedge angles as distinct from similar solutions generated from use of image technique which are of restricted applications.

The solutions presented can also be interpreted from the viewpoint of the source functions thus opening an effective means of solving fluid flow problems in a wide variety of porous domains with varying angular sections.
