I am trying to find the time a constituent (a powdered solid) would take to get mixed in the mixture. For this i have solved the flow separately and then on the fully converged flow i am trying to solve the scalar transport equation. But I am very confused about the diffusion term. Should the flow be diffusion independent? if not What should be the formulation of the diffusion term? Should i use molecular diffusion or diffusion due to flow?
Please help me here.
Thank you in advance.
