The amount of calculation involved here can be very considerable and use of a computer is usually required. A simpler approach is to make use of the many expressions, graphs and tables available in the heat transfer literature. Typical data, presented by Incropera and DE Witt(45) and by Howell(47), are shown in Figures 9.38-9.40, where it will be seen that in many cases, the values of the view factors approach unity. This means that nearly all the radiation leaving one surface arrives at the second surface as, for example, when a sphere is contained within a second larger sphere. Wherever a view factor approaches zero, only a negligible part of one surface can be seen by the other surface.

The unique ability of crown ethers to form stable complexes with various cations has been used to advantage in such diverse processes as isotope separations (Jepson and De Witt, 1976), the transport of ions through artificial and natural membranes (Tosteson, 1968) and the construction of ion-selective electrodes (Ryba and Petranek, 1973). On account of their lipophilic exterior, crown ether complexes are often soluble even in apolar solvents. This property has been successfully exploited in liquid-liquid and solid-liquid phase-transfer reactions. Extensive reviews deal with the synthetic aspects of the use of crown ethers as phase-transfer catalysts (Gokel and Dupont Durst, 1976 Liotta, 1978 Weber and Gokel, 1977 Starks and Liotta, 1978). Several studies have been devoted to the identification of the factors affecting the formation and stability of crown-ether complexes, and many aspects of this subject have been discussed in reviews (Christensen et al., 1971, 1974 Pedersen and Frensdorf, 1972 Izatt et al., 1973 Kappenstein, 1974).

In 1938, Brunauer, Emmett and Teller(12) and Emmett and de Witt(13) developed what is now known as the BET theory. As in the case in Langmuir s isotherm, the theory is based on the concept of an adsorbed molecule which is not free to move over the surface, and which exerts no lateral forces on adjacent molecules of adsorbate. The BET theory does, however, allow different numbers of adsorbed layers to build up on different parts of the surface, although it assumes that the net amount of surface which is empty or which is associated with a monolayer, bilayer and so on is constant for any particular equilibrium condition. Monolayers are created by adsorption on to empty surface and by desorption from bilayers. Monolayers are lost both through desorption and through the adsorption of additional layers. The rate of adsorption is proportional to the frequency with which molecules strike the surface and the area of that surface. From the kinetic theory of gases, the frequency is proportional to the pressure of the molecules and hence ...
