Interfacial transfer unsteady diffusion

Interfacial transfer of chemicals provides an interesting twist to our chemical fate and transport investigations. Even though the flow is generally turbulent in both phases, there is no turbulence across the interface in the diffusive sublayer, and the problem becomes one of the rate of diffusion. In addition, temporal mean turbulence quantities, such as eddy diffusion coefficient, are less helpful to us now. The unsteady character of turbulence near the diffusive sublayer is crucial to understanding and characterizing interfacial transport processes. [Pg.196]

This section contains a simple introduction to steady state and unsteady species mole (mass) diffusion in dilute binary mixtures. First, the physical interpretations of these diffusion problems are given. Secondly, the physical problem is expressed in mathematical terms relating the concentration profiles to the diffusion fluxes. Emphasis is placed on two diffusion problems that form the basis for the interfacial mass transfer modeling concepts used in reaction engineering. [Pg.599]
