8.4.1. Normal Force Calculation

The default relationship is the power law:

(8–12)

where is the inverse of a permeability coefficient of the porous wall.

Another relationship is the threshold law:

(8–13)

where and are two different permeabilities, and is the critical force density.

The third relationship is the asymptotic law:

(8–14)

where is a scaling factor with the dimensions of the velocity.
