Abstract
The conventional “cylindrical tube” model of porous media is shown to be inapplicable to flows of nonlinear fluids. A more precise geometric description of the converging‐diverging pore geometry appears to enable accurate pressure drop‐flow rate descriptions but requires further development.Keywords
