While the Darcy and Forchheimer relations are widely applied to determine the permeability and the form drag coefficient of open-cell metal foam, they both assume that the porous medium is infinite in all directions, i.e., large enough so that the effect of any confining walls is negligible. Many researchers, however, pay little or no attention to the size of metal foam samples in pressure-drop studies. The size of a foam sample perpendicular to the flow direction may be small enough such that wall effects are significant. This article experimentally investigates the wall effect on the permeability and form drag coefficient for two types of open-cell aluminum foam subjected to airflow entering the foam in the Forchheimer regime. The Forchheimer equation was recast in two different manners, which resulted in new non-dimensional numbers that correlated very well with the diameter of the foam samples measured in cells. The correlations are valid for a confining-tube-diameter-based Reynolds number ranging from approximately 13,000 to 105,000, and for diameters ranging from 12 to 36 cells and 24 to 60 cells for 10- and 20-pore per inch foam, respectively. The obtained correlations allow for determining pressure drop given only the velocity and the diameter of an aluminum foam sample.
