✦ Synopsis

Average transport coefficients for different transport models are computed by using widely varying distributions of residence times of elements a t the transporting surface. I t is shown that for typical transport models, the shapes of the residence time and age distributions have an insignificant effect on the average transport coefficient. Operational techniques for calculating average coefficients and for constructing delayed versions of age distributions are presented.
