Effective Diffusion Coefficient in Porous Media
Abstract
Recent calculations by Prager of upper bounds for the effective diffusion coefficient (or conductivity) in porous media, in terms of certain statistical parameters of the random geometry, are reformulated so as to apply specifically to a bed of spherical particles. The calculations are simplified by considering an idealized bed in which centers are randomly situated without restricting the spheres to nonoverlapping locations. The result, applicable to randomly overlapping spheres of either uniform or nonuniform sizes, gives the upper bound for the effective diffusion coefficient as φD0/[1−½lnφ], where D0 is the actual diffusion coefficient in a fluid which fills the void regions of the bed and φ is the void fraction. This result is compared with experimental results of various investigators for nonoverlapping spheres and also with Hashin and Shtrikman's expression for the best upper bound that can be calculated without taking the statistics of a particular random geometry into account.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
