| Description | Journal: Iop Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering The resistance to flow of imbibed fluids in soft porous structures subjected to compression can be a solution for impact attenuation. The mechanism, named ex-poro-hydrodynamic (XPHD) lubrication, is based on permeability variation with porosity, which, at its turn, depends on the compression degree of the porous structure. A literature survey revealed scarce information regarding the permeability of compressed reticulated foams or 3D fiber-based structures, used in XPHD applications. Moreover, the permeability depends on the fluid and its velocity. This paper presents experimental data of the permeability of glycerine for an in-plane, axisymmetric flow through a porous material subjected to various degrees of compression. The experiments were done on an in-house made radial permeameter with pressure differentials up to 6 bars. The experimental data was compared with the predicted results, using the well-known Kozeny-Carman equation and related formulations. |
