Example superficial velocity \(\tilde{u}\) profile within a square array of cylinders. Position is from a flat wall on the left to the center of the channel on the right. 2l is the spacing between cylinders. The velocity gradients created by the high velocity in the gap between cylinders and the low velocity downstream of cylinders provides the potential for enhanced dispersion. (From [77])
