Abstract :
In this work, a two-dimensional model is proposed to predict the electrical response of a generic polymer-based chemiresistor. Three different physical phenomena are modeled: fluid dynamics of the carrier fluid; adsorption of the analyte on the sensitive layer; change of electrical resistance due to adsorption.
