Abstract

Contaminant transport through a saturated porous medium in a semi-infinite domain is studied in order to simulate an experimental apparatus mainly constituted by a chamber filled with a glass beads bed. The general solution of the advection dispersion equation in a porous medium was obtained by utilizing the Jacobi θ3 Function. The analytical solution here presented has been provided when the inlet (Dirac) and the boundary conditions (Dirichelet, Neumann, and mixed types) are fixed. The proposed solution was used to study experimental data and to estimate the transport parameters.
