Abstract This paper establishes exponential decay bounds for solutions of the Forchheimer equations in semiinfinite pipe flow through a porous medium when homogeneous initial and lateral surface boundary conditions are applied. We investigate the decay for zero net flow and for nonzero net flow separately. Ó 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction The model equations (Brinkman, Darcy and Forchheimer equations) describing flow in a porous medium are discussed in the books of Nield and Bejan [1] and Straughan [2]. In this paper we investigate exponential decay results for Forchheimer flow through a porous medium in a semi-infinite cylindrical pipe. We consider separately the cases of zero and nonzero net flow across the pipe intake. Under appropriate homogeneous initial conditions and homogeneous boundary conditions on the lateral surface of the cylinder we establish Saint–Venant type decay of solution as the distance from the finite end of the cylinder tends to infinity. Several papers in the literature have dealt with stability and continuous dependence questions for Brinkman, Darcy and Forchheimer equations with more general geometries and data (see [3,4]). For a survey of Saint–Venant type spatial decay results, see [5–7]. More recent work on spatial decay in porous medium problems has been carried out by Ames et al. [8], Payne and Song [9,10], Chadam and Qin [11], and Qin and Kaloni [12]. We assume that a porous medium occupies the interior of a semi-infinite cylindrical pipe of arbitrary cross-section with generators parallel to the x3 -axis. Denoting the cross-section of the pipe by D and the interior of the half cylinder by R, we introduce the notation: *

Throughout this paper we adopt the summation convention of summing in any term over a repeated spatial index, Latin subscripts ranging from 1 to 3 and Greek subscripts from 1 to 2. A comma is used to denote partial differentiation. Let ðui ; T ; pÞ denote velocity, temperature, and pressure in the semi-infinite pipe. The governing equations for Forchheimer flows are 9 bjujui þ ð1 þ cT Þui ¼ p;i þ gi T = uj;j ¼ 0 in R ft > 0g: ð1:1Þ ; oT þ u T ¼ DT i ;i ot Here b and c are positive constants. The vector gi represents a gravity field, and the symbol D denotes the Laplace operator. The boundary and initial conditions are given by ua na ¼ 0 T ðx1 ; x2 ; x3 ; tÞ ¼ 0

It should be pointed out that ua is not prescribed on x3 ¼ 0. In view of (1.12 ) and (1.21 ), it follows that Z Z Z zZ Z Z zZ u3 dA ¼ u3 dA þ u3;3 dA dn ¼ u3 dA

Our goal is to derive a first-order differential inequality for an energy expression, an inequality which will imply exponential decay. This is carried out in Section 2 for the case of zero net flow

and in Section 3 for nonzero net flow. In each case bounds for the total energy lead to explicit decay results. In what follows we make use of the notation g ¼ sup½gi gi 1=2 :

2. Auxiliary inequalities We shall make frequent use of Schwarz’s inequality and the arithmetic–geometric mean inequality in our derivation of the the first-order differential inequality. In addition, we employ the following three inequalities. Let D be a plane domain with sufficiently smooth boundary oD, and let v be a sufficiently smooth function defined on the closure D of D. 1.
