Abstract

The effect of the temporal variation of the hydraulic gradient on the transport of the impurity pulses in a porous column has been studied experimentally. The measurements were made using horizontal columns with different porosity and therefore different permeability. The temporal changes in the hydraulic gradient as well as the intensity of the bulk flow were organized by changing the vertical position of the outlet valve. Only harmonic fluctuations of the filtration flow intensity have been taken into account. It was shown that the effect of the time-varying flow rate is only noticeable when concentration convection develops against the background of the main advective flow. Changing the period and amplitude of the flow pulsations caused by changing the hydraulic gradient at the ends of the column will only change the impurity transport rate, not the amount of impurity leached.

期刊介绍： Microgravity Science and Technology – An International Journal for Microgravity and Space Exploration Related Research is a is a peer-reviewed scientific journal concerned with all topics, experimental as well as theoretical, related to research carried out under conditions of altered gravity. Microgravity Science and Technology publishes papers dealing with studies performed on and prepared for platforms that provide real microgravity conditions (such as drop towers, parabolic flights, sounding rockets, reentry capsules and orbiting platforms), and on ground-based facilities aiming to simulate microgravity conditions on earth (such as levitrons, clinostats, random positioning machines, bed rest facilities, and micro-scale or neutral buoyancy facilities) or providing artificial gravity conditions (such as centrifuges). Data from preparatory tests, hardware and instrumentation developments, lessons learnt as well as theoretical gravity-related considerations are welcome. Included science disciplines with gravity-related topics are: − materials science − fluid mechanics − process engineering − physics − chemistry − heat and mass transfer − gravitational biology − radiation biology − exobiology and astrobiology − human physiology
