Taylor dispersion (axial dispersion coefficient)

Input(s)

R: Radius \((\mathrm{cm})\)

\(\boldsymbol{v}_{z}\): Average Velocity \((\mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{s})\)

\(\boldsymbol{D}_{\boldsymbol{A} \boldsymbol{B}}\): Diffusivity \(\left(\mathrm{cm}^{2} / \mathrm{s}\right)\)

Output(s)

K: Axial Dispersion Coefficient \(\left(\mathrm{cm}^{2} / \mathrm{s}\right)\)

Formula(s)

\[ \mathrm{K}=\frac{\left(\mathrm{R}^{2}\right) *\left(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{z}}^{2}\right)}{48 * \mathrm{D}_{\mathrm{AB}}} \]
