Abstract

A physical model for tracer transport in an
intergranular porous material is presented.
Particularly, the measured temporal variations of
a tracer mass concentration inside the physical
model are compared to the one predicted for the
same boundary and initial conditions by the 1D
and 2D analytical solutions of the governing
differential equation. A non-reactive tracer and
steady flow conditions are considered. The Péclet
number for the considered flow is such that the
molecular diffusion can be neglected.

Keywords

convective-dispersive transport; Darcy law; mass concentration; physical modeling; saturated porous media; steady seepage flow
