Solute Transport Phenomena in a Stratified Fluid Through a Porous Media with Boundary Reactions

The paper analyzes the transport phenomena of solute on stratified, viscous, incompressible fluid flowing through a porous media between two parallel plates with reaction at the boundaries. The governing advection-diffusion equation is solved using Aris’s method of moments with the aid of a finite difference technique. The coefficient of transport and the axial mean concentration distribution are obtained using the first four central moments. The impact of Darcy number, stratification factor and reaction parameter on the transport process of tracer are analyzed.
