The practical applications of the stochastic processes theory are multiple. This fact is a consequence of the capacity of this theory that can predict the future of a dynamic system by use of its history and its actual state. Between the most famous applications we remember:- the analysis of all movement sorts starting with those from atomic and

molecular level [4.62-4.62] and finishing with those that describe the highsystem evolution such as atmospheric system [4.63-4.64]

- the analysis of dynamic links for networks with stations where the service time is stochastic distributed (computers networks, Internet networks, etc);

- the analysis of virtual experiences given with a stochastic model [4.65]]- the analysis of capitals and finances movement [4.66-4.67];- the analysis and development of all games sorts [4.68- the optimization and the control of all sorts of dynamic systems [4.68]

Flow description by stochastic modeling

Each transformation or phenomena results from one or many

elementary steps or processes. The equilibrium state results from

similar but contrary transport fluxes (Em Bratu, 1974)

The mathematical theory of complete connected chains [4.12-4.16]

could be described with this condensed statement:

The state of a system at time n is a random variable An with values

in a finite space (measurable) (A A ). The state evolution at time n+1

results from the appearance of a Bn+1 result which is also a random

variable with values in a finite space (measurable) (B B). The

appearance of a result signaling the state evolution could be

represented considering a u application of AxB in A and introducing

the following statement: An+1=u(An, Bn+1) for all n>=0 . The Bn+1

probability distribution conditioned by Bn, An, Bn-1, An-1,…….B1, A1,

A0, and symbolized as (P(Bn+1/Bn,An,…)), depends only on the state

An. The group [(A,A),(B,B), u:AxB→A ,P] defines a random system

with complete connections".

Process components and Connection processI) If one elementary particle is participating to a transport phenomena process within a medium with

random characteristics like granular, porous solid etc., the medium will cause random velocity

changes of the particle. In this case the transport process concerning the local velocity are the

named "process components", whereas the transport process changes given by the random

properties of the medium gives the named "connection process

II) The transport phenomena occurs when the displacement of the carriers through different ways

("process components") and the passage from one way to another one is realized by a random

commutation process ("connection process")

III) -A particle (molecule, group of molecules, turbulent group etc) evolves in a medium which

produces its transformation, it means that the process exchange characterizes the particle

evolution. The process occurring before and after the transformation are the "process

components", whereas the transformation itself represents the stochastic evolution "connection

process"

IV) The elementary particles passes randomly from one compartment to another one, the

compartments exchange process form the "connection process" whereas the transformation

realized in each compartment represents the "process components"

V) When a phenomena results on different structures formation, the passage from one structure to

another one is made randomly, in this case the structure formation is the "process component"

and the passing steps are the "connection process"

Mechanical mixing of a liquid media: Numeric exemplification

In an elliptic based cylindrical apparatus with D=1 m, H=1 m there is a solution stirred with a 6 paddles stirrer

which has a d=0.4 m and b=0.1 m. The mixer is placed in the tank in a position where the ration h/H=0.2 (see

figure 4.1). It can work at n=0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.1, 1.3, 1.5 turns/sec. One reactant with the same physical

properties that the solution is fed close to the liquid surface. The mixture obtained is evacuated by a

connection on the apparatus base. The entry and the exit flows are identical Qex = 0.0048 m3/s. The question

here is to obtain the parameters dependences characterizing this mixing case according to the number of the

stirrer turns.

towards the base of the tank and then with nch = 1.

Species displacement and transfer in a porous media- Liquid motion inside the porous media- Deep bed filtration

- for the pores with radius between 10-3-10-5 m it is valid the theory of Poiseuille flow; so the mean force for fluid flow between two planes is expressed by the pressure difference; this can be a consequence of differential actions of external and capillary or/and gravitational forces

-for the pores having mean radius between 10-6-10-

9m we explain the porous body flow by the Knudsen theory; a sort of diffusion coefficient that strongly depends on species dimension shows that this flow has a separation behaviour (two or more species moving inside of porous body present different displacement velocities)

- for the pores or better for the molecular windows, where we have the characteristic dimension smaller than 10-9 m, the movement of one species inside of porous solid occurs due to the molecular interactions between the species and the network of porous body; here for description of species displacement it is used the theory of the molecular dynamics

Page 12: Flow in Porous Media

Species displacement and transfer in a porous media- Liquid motion inside the porous media- Deep bed filtration

An interesting method for the analysis of the species motion inside the porous body can be based on the observation that this motion occurs as a result of two or more elementary evolutions that are randomly connected. It is the stochastic way for analysis of specie motion inside the porous body.

Liquid motion inside the porous media.

Between the classic and stochastic methods that are used for the analysis of liquid flow inside the porous media we have strong liaisons. These liaisons are given by the relations between the parameters of stochastic and classic models of this flow type. We show here that the analysis of this flow type by using of stochastic way explains some parameters of deterministic models such as: parameters contained by the Darcy law ; parameters that appear inside the porous medium flow continuity equation ; parameters used by the models that explain the flow mechanism inside the porous body.

Apparently the parameters of stochastic models are very much different from those of classic (deterministic) models where the permeability, the porosity, the pore radius, the tortuosity coefficient of pore, the specific surface, and the effective species diffusion coefficient represents the most used parameters for porous

media characterisation.

More experimental measurements for flow characterization inside the porous body show that the dispersion coefficient has not constant value; for more body structures it frequently presents a time or diffusing species concentration dependency.

More complexes models has been produced for characterization of these situations. One of the first models that intends to produce a response to this problem is recognized as models of motion with states having multiple velocities

With this model the liquid element evolves inside of porous body with random motions having the velocities

m,..1i,vi

.

These random jumps of velocity from a state to other can be explained by random changes of the flow pore

section or by random changes of the flow rate that go in each pore from each pull road coupling of pores from

the porous body

The completion of this description is given by the consideration that accepts a classical states connection. So

This discussion, about the deviation of the stochastic model to the parabolic or to the hyperbolic model for the species transport inside the porous body, shows that this problem presents two solutions; the first solution ( frequently used) to the parabolic model and the second one based on the hyperbolic model. For some practical methods for porous body behaviour characterization such as liquid or gaseous permeation methods, the data interpretation by the hyperbolic model can be of interest

For the porous body with constitutive elements of height dimension such as the fixed packed bed, where the

characteristic dimension is that of the packed element (diameter d of the packed body), the frequency of the

velocity change is d/v (after each passing over a packed body the local fluid velocity v changes its

direction)

Species displacement and transfer in a porous media- Deep bed filtration

The deep bed filtration clarifies some suspensions with small content in solid by their flowing into length granular bed formed by fine particles. During the flowing inside the granular bed, between one particle from the suspension and one particle from the granular bed there appear interaction forces that determine the fixing of the particle from the suspension to the particle of the bed. This elementary process occurs in more points placed between suspension input and its bed exit. The quantity of the solid retained at one local section of flow cannot exceed the quantity determined by the granular bed open spaces hold-up.When the retained quantity comes near to the quantity determined by the bed open spaces we affirm that the bed is cloggedAfter clogging we regenerate the granular bed by liquid fluidization when the retained solid goes out from the bed;

Species displacement and transfer in a porous media- Deep bed filtration

Numerical application

In an experimental investigation of a deep bed filtration has been used the retention of Fe(OH)3 gel form water in

fixed bed of sand particles. For a fixed bed with H0 = 20 cm and operating with wf = 2,5 m/h at 30 0 C and c0 = 6.75

mg/l, depending of particle diameter, the following results has obtained: Obtain a dependence of Mint parameters on

sand particle diameter.

Species displacement and transfer in a porous media- Deep bed filtration

Stochastic modeling

A deep bed stochastic model [4.5] identifies for micro-particle evolution in the

filtration bed two elementary processes:

a) a type I process that considers for micro-particles their motion with the

velocity vv1

; this velocity is induced by the surrounding flowing fluid; this

process type physically corresponds with the non deposition of the micro-particle;

b) a type II process that shows the possibility of the micro-particle to take

the deposition way; from the viewpoint of the motion the velocity of this process

is 0v2

.

The stochastic model accepts a Markov type connection between its two elementary states. So with 12

we

define the transition probability from the type I process to type II process. The transition probability from a

type II process to a type I process is21

. By ),x(P1

and ),x(P2

we note the probability to locate the

micro-particle at the position x and time with a type I evolution respectively with a type II evolution

Now we go on and complete the validation of discussed model. As it is known only the experimental

investigation can validate or invalidate one process model. For this concrete case we appeal to the

experimental data for the filtration of a dilute Fe(OH)3 suspension (no more than 0.1 g Fe(OH)3 /l ) in a sand

bed with various heights and constitution particle diameters. The considered experiments report the

measurements at constant filtrate flow rate and consist in the time evolution of the Fe(OH)3 concentration at

the bed exit when at their input the solid concentration remains unchanged

Firstly it is observable that assumption of height values for

2112 and parameters is excellently covered by the experimentally

starting data. Secondly, we find out that all process factors

influence the stochastic model’s parameters values.
