Darcy's law is the fundamental law of fluid motion in porous media published by Henry Darcy in 1856 [1].

Math and Physics

 q = -\frac{kA}{\mu} \frac{dP}{dL}

Nomenclature

 m = mass, lbm
 M = molecular weight, lbm/lbmol
 n = number of moles, lbmol
 P = Pressure, psia
 R = universal gas constant, 10.7316 psia ft3/ lbmol/ °R
 T = temperature, °R
 V = volume, ft3
 z = gas compressibility factor, dimensionless
