Colloid Transport in a Single Fracture–Matrix System: Gravity Effects, Influence of Colloid Size and Density

A numerical model was developed to investigate the influence of gravitational force on the transport of colloids in a single horizontal fracture⁻matrix system. Along with major transport phenomena, prominence was given to study the mass flux at the fracture⁻matrix interface, and...
