Abstract

top
In this paper, we propose a mathematical model for flow and transport processes of diluted solutions in domains separated by a leaky semipermeable membrane. We formulate transmission conditions for the flow and the solute concentration across the membrane which take into account the property of the membrane to partly reject the solute, the accumulation of rejected solute at the membrane, and the influence of the solute concentration on the volume flow, known as osmotic effect. The model is solved numerically for the situation of a domain in two dimensions, consisting of two subdomains separated by a rigid fixed membrane. The numerical results for different values of the material parameters and different computational settings are compared.
