Abstract

We describe in this paper how we measured the thermodiffusion coefficient DT and the isothermal diffusion coefficient D in a free liquid and in a porous medium. Next we compute their ratio in order to resolve the question, "Is the Soret coefficient the same in a free fluid and in a porous medium?"
