Modeling Ergun with Brinkman equation ?

I am modelling a gas flow through a porous media. The viscosity of the gas depends on the temperature and a source term of gas production (solid conversion) is necessary.
As I am in intermediary regime, I want to use Ergun equation.
For this purpose, I am trying to configure Brinkman equation to obtain the Ergun equation including viscous transport (Brinkman Term).
My questions:
Have someone done this kind of configuration ? (in order to compare my configuration)
Is the expression of the source term in both momentum equation and continuity equation normal ? --> My bibliography shows that most models just include source term of gas production in the continuity equation and not in the momentum equation.
Thank you very much for your help.
Gabriel.

have you find a solution to your question?
I am also trying to do something similar wit v4.2a.
