In this talk we present upscaling of the classical convection-diffusion equation in a narrow slit. We suppose that the transport parameters are such that we are in Taylor’s regime i.e. we deal with dominant Peclet numbers. In contrast to the classical work of Taylor, we undertake a rigorous derivation of the upscaled hyperbolic dispersion equation. Hyperbolic effective models were proposed by several authors and our goal is to confirm rigorously the effective equations derived by Balakotaiah et al in recent years using a formal Liapounov - Schmidt reduction. Our analysis uses the Laplace transform in time and an anisotropic singular perturbation technique, the small characteristic parameter epsilon being the ratio between the thickness and the longitudinal observation length. The Peclet number is written as Cε^-α , with α < 2. Hyperbolic effective model corresponds to a high Peclet number close to the threshold value when Taylor’s regime turns to turbulent mixing and we characterize it by supposing 4/3 < α < 2. We prove that the difference between the dimensionless physical concentration and the effective concentration, calculated using the hyperbolic upscaled model, divided by ε^2-α (the local Peclet number) converges strongly to zero in L²-norm. For Peclet numbers we considered, the hyperbolic dispersion equation turns out to give a better approximation than the classical parabolic Taylor model.
