In this chapter, the non-Darcy model is employed for porous media filled with nanofluid. Both natural and forced convection heat transfer can be analyzed with this model. The governing equations in forms of vorticity stream function are derived and then they are solved via control volume-based finite element method (CVFEM). The effect of Darcy number on nanofluid flow and heat transfer is examined.
