Dispersion coefficients, calculated from observed concentration versus time profiles along the length of a glass bead pack, increased with distance from the plane of tracer introduction. The dispersion coefficients were of the order of 10−4 10−3 cm2/sec for a range of seepage velocities (0.0168 to 0.14 cm/min) and solution contents (0.21 to 0.37 cm3 per cm3). The dispersion coefficient increased with increasing seepage velocity and in most cases, with decreasing solution content. The seepage velocity and solution content were varied independently.
