ATB-Colloquium: 

Novel-type solutions of the convection-anomalous diffusion transport equation.

Speaker: Prof. Csaba Mészáros, Szent István University, Gödöllö, Hungary

The lecture focusses on diffusion processes in porous material, with application e.g. in drying. After a brief overview of most important general features of the non-classical diffusion on the base of the contemporary non-equilibrium thermodynamics, the relevant generalized form of the free energy function is presented on the base of the general theory of non-classical type diffusion processes. Then, using the simplest variant of the convection-diffusion equation, novel-type analytic solutions are given for transport processes with both subdiffusive-, and superdiffusive phenomena.

Inviting ATB-scientist: Prof. Dr Klaus Gottschalk
