Assessment of Different Pressure Drop-Flow Rate Equations in a Pressurized Porous Media Filter for Irrigation Systems

The small open area available at the slots of underdrains in pressurized granular bed filters for drip irrigation implies: (1) the existence of a region with non-uniform flow, and (2) local values of modified particle Reynolds number >500. These flow conditions may disagree with those accepted as...
