Abstract: In this paper we investigate the porous medium equation with a fractional temporal derivative. We justify that the resulting equation emerges when we consider the waiting-time (or trapping) phenomenon that can happen in the medium. Our deterministic derivation is dual to the stochastic CTRW framework and can include nonlinear effects. With the use of the previously developed method we approximate the investigated equation along with a constant flux boundary conditions and obtain a very accurate solution. Moreover, we generalize the approximation method and provide explicit formulas which can be readily used in applications. The subdiffusive anomalies in some porous media such as construction materials have been recently verified by experiment. Our simple approximate solution of the time-fractional porous medium equation fits accurately a sample data which comes from one of these experiments.
