Abstract

Abstract : The approximate solutions of the time fractional advection-dispersion equation are presented in this article. The nonlocal nature of solute movement and the nonuniformity of fluid flow velocity in the advection-dispersion process lead to the formation of a heterogeneous system, which can be modeled using a fractional advection-dispersion equation, which generalizes the classical advection-dispersion equation and replaces the time derivative with the fractional Caputo derivative. Researchers use a variety of numerical techniques to study such fractional models, but the nonlocality of the derivative having fractional order leads to high computation complexity and complex calculations, so the task is to find an efficient technique that requires less computation and provides greater accuracy when numerically solving such models. A innovative techniques, homotopy perturbation method and new iteration method, are used in connection with the Elzaki transform to solve the "fractional advection-dispersion equation" which provides the solution in the convergent series form. When the homotopy perturbation method is used with the Elzaki transform, fast convergent series solutions can be obtained with less computation. By solving some cases of time-fractional advection-dispersion equation with varied initial conditions with the help of new iterative transform method and homotopy perturbation transform method demonstrates the usefulness of the proposed methods.
