Inertia and diffusion effects on reactive transport with fluid-solid reactions in rough fracture flows
W. John Lee, Seonkyoo Yoon, Peter K. Kang
Abstract
This study investigates the impacts of fluid inertia and solute diffusion on the reactive transport involving bimolecular fluid-solid reactions in rough channel flows. The critical role of flow fields on fluid-solid reactions is highlighted. Further, a parsimonious upscaled model that successfully captures the reactive transport process is developed.
