“…where D, ⌳ 2 , ⌳ 3 , and ⌳ 4 are -and -dependent coefficients defined by Dassios et al (1994) and G n (x) and H n (x) are the Gegenbauer polynomials of the first and second kind, respectively, of degree Ϫ(1/2) and of order n. By assuming constant diffusivity, the governing equation for the steady state mass transport of the solute A, under creeping flow conditions (see Figure 1), can be written in dimensionless form as…”
