Authors:
- Describes mathematics of volume averaging of the non-liner PDEs describing fluid flow in saturated porous media with heat transfer from bounding surfaces and between fluid and porous structure
- Explains measurements of heat transfer to a saturated porous medium to support theoretical development
- Presents estimation of thermal dispersion in the porous medium when buoyant flow
- Provides context with a thorough review of relevant literature
