dispersion coefficients

Dispersion coefficients describe how particles, chemicals, or pollutants spread out in a fluid (like air or water). Think of them as measurements that tell us how quickly and extensively substances mix and move apart over time. Higher dispersion coefficients mean a substance spreads out faster, covering a larger area, while lower values indicate slower spreading. These coefficients are essential for predicting the distribution and concentration of substances in environmental studies, engineering, and fluid dynamics, helping us understand and manage pollution, pollution control, or the transport of materials in various systems.
