Editorial summary

The paper formulates an axisymmetric lattice-Boltzmann model for SVOC transport in a tube, including reversible wall adsorption and the effects of airflow. Simulations and experiments indicate that adsorption delays steady state, while airflow shortens equilibration and lowers the steady-state concentration. FLEC occurs in the discussion of earlier chamber-transport modeling rather than as the device modeled or used in this study.

FLEC use

FLEC mention, comparison or reference

The study's own apparatus is an axisymmetric tube and its contribution is a generic lattice-Boltzmann transport model. The indexed FLEC occurrence is tied to cited earlier FLEC mass-transfer work, so it is a literature mention rather than FLEC modeling or use.
