A numerical scheme is proposed for analyzing transport phenomena in disordered media which satisfies the conservation principle. In order to validate the finite difference formulation, the analysis of usual Brownian motion on fractals is developed, the scaling of P(r, t) discussed and steady-state profile analyzed. The role of fluid dynamic conditions is addressed by means of two applications: gas velocity under Darcy regime and incompressible irrotational flow around a fractal cluster.

Abstract
A numerical scheme is proposed for analyzing transport phenomena in disordered media which satisfies the conservation principle. In order to validate the finite difference formulation, the analysis of usual Brownian motion on fractals is developed, the scaling of P(r, t) discussed and steady-state profile analyzed. The role of fluid dynamic conditions is addressed by means of two applications: gas velocity under Darcy regime and incompressible irrotational flow around a fractal cluster.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
