Answer #1

Specific volume is Volume per unit mass.

Specific volume=Volume/mass flow rate so if specific volume is double then. New specific volume will be double of initial specific volume.

New sp. Volume= 2*old sp. Volume.

Volume remain same(assume all other properties remain same) then. New mass flow rate will be,

New mass flow rate=Volume/new specific volume=Volume/2*old sp. Volume

So new mass flow rate will be =Old mass flow rate/2.

So mass flow rate become half while other properties remain same.

Darcy's law gives us the volume flow rate-volume per time (for example, cubic meters per day, m^3/day). Another way to express volume is on a per-unit-area basis. For example, if we have a 1-m^3 cube, we know its base is 1 m^2 the cross-sectional area of the cube-and its height is 1m. If we fill the cube with water, we can say we have 1m of water per unit area. Darcy's law can be rearranged to calculate the volume flow...
