Abstract: We prove the large time behavior of solutions to a coupled thermo-diffusion arising in the modelling of the motion of hot colloidal particles in porous media. Additionally, we also ensure the uniqueness of solutions of the target problem. The main mathematical difficulty is due to the presence in the right-hand side of the equations of products between temperature and concentration gradients. Such terms mimic the so-called thermodynamic Soret and Dufour effects. These are cross-coupling terms emphasizing in this context a strong interplay between heat conduction and molecular diffusion.

Review text

The paper deals with the problem of the thermo-diffusion of hot colloidal particles in porous media. In thermo-diffusion the motion of particles is due to gradients both of the chemical and the thermal fields. This coupling represents the main mathematical difficulty of the set of equations which model the problem. The reaction term in the equations for the populations is the classical Smoluchovski interaction production. The authors prove the existence of solutions for a suitable class of initial data, in the case of homogeneous boundary conditions. Moreover, the large time behavior of these solutions is determined.
