The flow of fluids with pressure-dependent viscosity in free-space and in porous media is considered in this study. The interest is to employ the physical model of flow through a porous layer down an inclined plane in order to derive velocity expressions that can be used as entry conditions in the study of two-dimensional flows through free-space and through porous channels. The generalized equations of Darcy, Forchheimer and Brinkman are used in this work.
