Transfer flux

The solute concentrations very close to the interface, and are assumed to be in equiUbrium, in the absence of any slow interfacial reaction. According to the linear distribution law, Cg. = thus from equation 14 the mass-transfer flux can be expressed in terms of an overall...

Combined Pore and Solid Diffusion In porous adsorbents and ion-exchange resins, intraparticle transport can occur with pore and solid diffusion in parallel. The dominant transport process is the faster one, and this depends on the relative diffusivities and concentrations in the pore fluid and in the adsorbed phase. Often, equilibrium between the pore fluid and the solid phase can be assumed to exist locally at each point within a particle. In this case, the mass-transfer flux is expressed by ...

This brief discussion of some of the many effects and interrelations involved in changing only one of the operating variables points up quite clearly the reasons why no exact analysis of the dispersion of gases in a liquid phase has been possible. However, some of the interrelationships can be estimated by using mathematical models for example, the effects of bubble-size distribution, gas holdup, and contact times on the instantaneous and average mass-transfer fluxes have recently been reported elsewhere (G5, G9). 

The moment equations of the size distribution should be used to characterize bubble populations by evaluating such quantities as cumulative number density, cumulative interfacial area, cumulative volume, interrelationships among the various mean sizes of the population, and the effects of size distribution on the various transfer fluxes involved. If one now assumes that the particle-size distribution depends on only one internal coordinate a, the typical size of a population of spherical particles, the analytical solution is considerably simplified. One can define the th moment // of the particle-size distribution by... 

Two-phase flows in micro-channels with an evaporating meniscus, which separates the liquid and vapor regions, have been considered by Khrustalev and Faghri (1996) and Peles et al. (1998, 2000). In the latter a quasi-one-dimensional model was used to analyze the thermohydrodynamic characteristics of the flow in a heated capillary, with a distinct interface. This model takes into account the multi-stage character of the process, as well as the effect of capillary, friction and gravity forces on the flow development. The theoretical and experimental studies of the steady forced flow in a micro-channel with evaporating meniscus were carried out by Peles et al. (2001). These studies revealed the effect of a number of dimensionless parameters such as the Peclet and Jacob numbers, dimensionless heat transfer flux, etc., on the velocity, temperature and pressure distributions in the liquid and vapor regions. The structure of flow in heated micro-channels is determined by a number of factors the physical properties of fluid, its velocity, heat flux on... 

This means that the heat transfer flux is proportional to the negative temperature gradient. If the positive L direction is chosen as the direction of heat flow, then temperature decreases along this direction and dT/dl is negative. One can write...

The book focuses on the biogeochemistry of trace elements in arid and semiarid zone soils and includes an introductory chapter on the nature and properties of arid zone soils. It presents an updated overview and a comprehensive coverage of the major aspects of trace elements and heavy metals that are of most concern in the world s arid and semi-arid soils. These include the content and distribution of trace elements in arid soils, their solution chemistry, their solid-phase chemistry, selective sequential dissolution techniques for trace elements in arid soils, the bioavailability of trace elements, and the pollution and remediation of contaminated arid soils. A comprehensive and focused case study on transfer fluxes of trace elements in Israeli arid and semi-arid soils is presented. The book concludes with a discussion of a quantitative global perspective on anthropogenic interferences in the natural trace elements distributions. The elements discussed in this book include Cd, Cu, Cr, Ni, Pb, Zn, Hg, As, Se, Co, B, Mo and others. This book is an excellent reference for students and professionals in the environmental, ecological, agricultural and geological sciences.

The annual transfer fluxes of the four metals among solid-phase components between one day and one year of incubation at the two moisture regimes are presented in Fig. 6.18. The overall transfer fluxes of the slow processes were differentiated between the two soils and the two moisture regimes. In general, the transfer fluxes of the metal in the loessial soil was higher than that in the sandy soil because of its abundant solid-phase...
