“…The so called reduced dimensionality models in their broader sense, i.e., any model that does not address all three dimensions equally, are a typically answer to the need for a balance between computational speed and accuracy of results. Common reduced dimensionality models are the 2D models (e.g., , ), combined 2D and 1D models and the so called 1D+1D models (e.g., , , ), which are a simplification of the 2D models (models where only the most dominant physical phenomena – e.g., mass transport via bulk gas flow in channel – are addressed in the dimension that runs along direction of gas flow). The 2D modeling approach leads to certain systematic discrepancies that are sometimes compensated by means of correction parameters yielding the pseudo 3D modeling approach (e.g., , , the Sherwood number adjusted 2D model in and the model of ).…”
