Abstract
In this paper the dispersion of a solute matter in a simple microfluid flow through a channel has been discussed. The effects of homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction rates have been considered in the analysis using Taylor's limiting condition and the effects of various paramete rs on the equivalent dispersion coefficient have been studied. It is o bserved that for a given simple microfluid the combined effect of homo geneous and heterogeneous chemical reaction is to decrease the equival ent dispersion coefficient.
