Dispersion de Taylor généralisée à un fluide à propriétés physiques variablesGeneralized Taylor dispersion for heterogeneous fluid

The investigation of non-reactive miscible solute dispersion in a vertical Hele–Shaw cell is considered. An asymptotic method is used to extend Taylor model to the case of the fluid density, the dynamic viscosity and the molecular diffusion coefficient are solute concentration-dependent. It is demonstrated that the averaged variables over the gap are governed by a convection–dispersion equation in which the dispersion tensor is concentration-dependent.
