Abstract

Previous work on dispersion of particles in N‐layer systems (generalized Taylor dispersion) for reflecting boundaries is extended to the case of periodic boundary conditions. An explicit expression for the dispersion is presented; this is never greater than the dispersion for the corresponding system with reflecting boundaries. Applications to chromatography with chemical reaction and to anomalous diffusion are made.
