Hsuan, " Bootstrap estimation of the mass transfer coefficient of a dissolving nonaqueous phase liquid pool in porous media " Wat Resour Resear, Vol. 38, No. 3, pp.1026 , 2002.doi :10.1029/2001WR000661https://dspace.library.tuc.gr/handle/123456789/315A new method for confidence interval estimation of mass transfer coefficients suitable for dissolving dense nonaqueous phase liquid pools in homogeneous, water-saturated porous media is developed. The method is based on the bootstrap resampling technique in conjunction with a least squares regression procedure. The method is successfully applied to experimental data collected from bench scale trichloroethylene pool dissolution experiments.
