👉 A mesh fluid, also known as a porous medium fluid or percolative fluid, is a type of fluid that flows through a network of interconnected pores within a solid material. These materials can range from natural substances like soil and rock to engineered composites with intentionally designed porous structures. The fluid can move through these pores due to a combination of capillary action, pressure gradients, and the fluid's own viscosity, allowing for unique transport properties such as enhanced mixing, filtration, and heat transfer. This behavior makes mesh fluids particularly useful in applications like groundwater remediation, oil recovery, and advanced filtration systems.
