How to apply solid species transport in Comsol?

When using Transport of Diluted Species in Porous Media (tds), the general equation can be:

where is diffusion and is convection or advection.

Now I want a solid species that works in the sediment itself :

where is biodiffusion/ bioturbation and is sedimentation or burial.

Is it simply making another tds physics where the porosity there is ?

Any other suggestions?

Many thanks,

Yaniv

I think I worked a way around the issue:

My way around was to make another Transport of Diluted Species (tds):

where , is the density of the solid and is its molar weight, both are constant. so I am really solving for porosity change in time and depth.

Does anyone know another solution?

Hi Yaniv,

Why exactly are you not satisfied with your first solution (new tds entry with porosity ). It seems to be the most intuitive way and I don't see a reason to expect any particular problem with it.
