    Notes: Abstract The development of a theoretical model for the prediction of velocity and pressure drop for the flow of a viscous power law fluid through a bed packed with uniform spherical particles is presented. The model is developed by volume averaging the equation of motion. A porous microstructure model based on a cell model is used. Numerical solution of the resulting equation is effected using a penalty Galerkin finite element method. Experimental pressure drop values for dilute solutions of carboxymethylcellulose flowing in narrow tubes packed with uniformly sized spherical particles are compared to theoretical predictions over a range of operating conditions. Overall agreement between experimental and theoretical values is within 15%. The extra pressure drop due to the presence of the wall is incorporated directly into the model through the application of the no-slip boundary condition at the container wall. The extra pressure drop reaches a maximum of about 10% of the bed pressure drop without wall effect. The wall effect increases as the ratio of tube diameter to particle diameter decreases, as the Reynolds number decreases and as the power law index increases.

    Notes: Abstract An experimental and numerical investigation into the magnitude of longitudinal and transverse dispersion in a two-dimensional flow field over a particle Peclet number range of 50–8500 is reported. Numerical modelling using a Galerkin finite element method is used to test various models, notably those of Fried and combarnous and Koch and Brady. Dispersion at low Peclet numbers (〈 200) is found to be described adequately by either model, which at large Peclet, the degree of dispersion is significantly underestimated. An improved dispersion model for Peclet numbers greater than 200 is proposed. The transverse dispersion term and the choice of inlet boundary condition are found to have a negligible effect on the shape of the breakthrough curve.

    Notes: Abstract The application of a volume average Navier-Stokes equation for the prediction of pressure drop in packed beds consisting of uniform spherical particles is presented. The development of the bed permeability from an assumed porous microstructure model is given. The final model is quasi-empirical in nature, and is able to correlate a wide variety of literature data over a large Reynolds number range. In beds with wall effects present the model correlates experimental data with an error of less than 10%. Numerical solutions of the volume averaged equation are obtained using a penalty finite element method.

    Notes: A methodology for the decomposition of the Crouzeix-Raviart finite element into six linear subelements is described. The resulting element is shown to satisfy the Brezzi-Babuška compatibility condition. The error bounds are also established. A comparison in accuracy between this and the standard Crouzeix-Raviart element is presented for driven cavity flows. Other results include the execution time for the DCR element and the Crouzeix-Raviart element along with both analytical and numerical integration. It is shown that the decomposed element results in shorter execution times with only marginal changes in accuracy.
