Abstract

This article reports on a set of simple remarks to understand the fine structure of a scalar mixture advected in a random, interconnected, frozen network of paths, i.e. a porous medium. We describe in particular the relevant scales of the mixture, the kinetics of their evolution, the nature of their interaction, and the scaling laws describing the coarsening process of the concentration field as it progresses through the medium, including its concentration distribution.
