The effect of acoustic waves on the transport of aconservative tracer in a water saturated column packed withglass beads was investigated. It was observed from theexperimental data that the addition of acoustic waves, in thefrequency range between 60 to 245 Hz, to a steadybackground pressure gradient, enhances solute transportcompared to the base case consisting of only a backgroundpressure gradient. Furthermore, it was found that the effectivevelocity of the solute is approximately inversely proportionalto the frequency of the acoustic wave.
