Abstract

A numerical and experimental study has been conducted to investigate the anisotropy of thermal dispersion in porous media. A successful attempt was made to numerically investigate the longitud nal thermal dispersion coefficient, considering a macroscopically uniform flow through a periodic model of square rods. The present numerical experiment confims that the longitudinal dispersion is substantially higher than the transverse dispersion. It has been found that the predicted apparent conductivities agree well with the experimental data.
