A kinetic description is proposed of a fluid species moving in a porous medium and chemically interacting with it. The porosity is included in the model by a modification of the standard kinetic equations for two gaseous species diffusing in a background medium of two solid species. The validity of the proposed kinetic model is assessed by comparing the resulting macroscopic model, obtained by Chapman-Enskog expansion, with macroscopic models present in literature.

Abstract

A kinetic description is proposed of a fluid species moving in a porous medium and chemically interacting with it. The porosity is included in the model by a modification of the standard kinetic equations for two gaseous species diffusing in a background medium of two solid species. The validity of the proposed kinetic model is assessed by comparing the resulting macroscopic model, obtained by Chapman-Enskog expansion, with macroscopic models present in literature.
