| Axial dispersion is an important parameter for quantifying solute transport in a one-dimensional porous medium, such as a packed bed reactor or a soil column. Recent developments in the area of supercritical fluid extraction and chromatography have created a need for understanding dispersion phenomena in such systems. Because the literature in this area is sparse and limited to convection-dominated conditions, a supercritical fluid system was constructed for measuring dispersion coefficients in porous media at low Reynolds numbers (... |
