Mass of fuel burned per unit bulk reservoir volume combustion - Nelson and McNiel
Input(s)
\(\phi_{E}\): Effective Porosity (fraction)
\(\emptyset\): Porosity (fraction)
\(m_{E}\): Mass of Fuel Burned per Unit Bulk Volume in the Laboratory Experiment \(\left(\mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)\)
Output(s)
\(m_{R}\): Mass of Fuel Burned per Unit Bulk Reservoir Volume \(\left(\mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)\)
Formula(s)
\[
m_{R}=\left(\frac{1-\emptyset}{1-\emptyset_{E}}\right) * m_{E}
\]
