Detailed Description

Class DustyGasTransport implements the Dusty Gas model for transport in porous media.

As implemented here, only species transport is handled. The viscosity, thermal conductivity, and thermal diffusion coefficients are not implemented.

The dusty gas model includes the effects of Darcy's law. There is a net flux of species due to a pressure gradient that is part of Darcy's law.

The dusty gas model expresses the value of the molar flux of species \( k \), \( J_k \) by the following formula.

\[ \sum_{j \ne k}{\frac{X_j J_k - X_k J_j}{D^e_{kj}}} + \frac{J_k}{\mathcal{D}^{e}_{k,knud}} = - \nabla C_k - \frac{C_k}{\mathcal{D}^{e}_{k,knud}} \frac{\kappa}{\mu} \nabla p \]

\( j \) is a sum over all species in the gas.

The effective Knudsen diffusion coefficients are given by the following form

\[ \mathcal{D}^e_{k,knud} = \frac{2}{3} \frac{r_{pore} \phi}{\tau} \left( \frac{8 R T}{\pi W_k} \right)^{1/2} \]

The effective knudsen diffusion coefficients take into account the effects of collisions of gas-phase molecules with the wall.
