  3. 1. Physical Origins and Rate Equations Driving potential for mass transfer Concentration Gradient Modes of mass transfer Convection and Diffusion
  4. General Considerations Mass transfer refers to mass in transit due to a species concentration gradient in a mixture. Must have a mixture of two or more species for mass transfer to occur. The species concentration gradient is the driving potential for transfer. Mass transfer by diffusion is analogous to heat transfer by conduction. Physical Origins of Diffusion: Transfer is due to random molecular motion. Consider two species A and B at the same T and p, but initially separated by a partition. Diffusion in the direction of decreasing concentration dictates net transport of A molecules to the right and B molecules to the left. In time, uniform concentrations of A and B are achieved.
  5. Definitions Molar concentration of species i. Mass density (kg/m3) of species i. Molecular weight (kg/kmol) of species i. Molar flux of species i due to diffusion. Absolute molar flux of species i. Mass flux of species i due to diffusion. Absolute mass flux of species i. Mole fraction of species i Mass fraction of species i Definitions Transport of i relative to molar average velocity (v*) of mixture. Transport of i relative to a fixed reference frame. Transport of i relative to mass-average velocity (v) of mixture. Transport of i relative to a fixed reference frame.
  6. Mixture Composition Definitions: Mass density of species i: i=Mi*Ci(kg/m3) Molecular weight of species i: Mi (kg/kmol) Molar concentration of species i: Ci (kmol/m3) Mixture mass density: (kg/m3) Total number of moles per unit volume of mixture
  7. Mixture Composition Definitions: Mass fraction of species i: mi=i/ Molar fraction of species i: xi=Ci/C For ideal gases:
  8. Fick’s Law of Diffusion For transfer of species A in a binary mixture of A & B Mass flux of species A (kg/m2s): Molar flux of species A (mol/m2s): Binary diffusivity DAB (m2/s) Ordinary diffusion due to concentration gradient and relative to coordinates that move with average velocity
  9. Fick’s Law of Diffusion For transfer of species A in a binary mixture of A & B Mass flux of species A (kg/m2s): Molar flux of species A (mol/m2s): If C and  are constants, the above equations become:
  10. Mass Diffusivity For ideal gases At 298 K, 1 atm
  11. Example 14.1 Consider the diffusion of hydrogen (species A) in air, liquid water, or iron (species B) at T = 293 K. Calculate the species flux on both molar and mass bases if the concentration gradient at a particular location is dCA/dx= 1 kmol/m3●m. Compare the value of the mass diffusivity to the thermal diffusivity. The mole fraction of the hydrogen xA, is much less than unity.
  12. Example 14.1 Known:Concentration gradient of hydrogen in air, liquid water, or iron at 293 K Find: Molar and mass fluxes of hydrogen and the relative values of the mass diffusivity and thermal diffusivity Schematic:
  13. Example 14.1 Assumptions:Steady-state conditions Properties: Table A.8, hydrogen-air (298 K): DAB= 0.41x10-4 m2/s, hydrogen-water (298 K): DAB= 0.63x10-8 m2/s, hydrogen-iron (293 K): DAB= 0.26x10-12 m2/s. Table A.4, air (293 K): α= 21.6x10-6 m2/s; Table A.6, water (293 K): k = 0.603 W/m•K, ρ = 998 kg/m3, cp= 4182 J/kg K. Table A.l, iron (300 K): α = 23.1 x 10-6m2/s. Analysis:Using Eqn. 14.14, we can find that the mass diffusivity of hydrogen in air at T=293K is
  14. Example 14.1 For the case where hydrogen is a dilute species, that is xA<<1, the thermal properties of the medium can be taken to be those of the host medium consisting of species B. The thermal diffusivity of water is: The ratio of the thermal diffusivity to the mass diffusivity is the Lewis number Le, defined in Equation 6.50. The molar flux of hydrogen is described by Fick’s law, Equation 14.13.
  15. Example 14.1 Hence, for the hydrogen-air mixture, The mass flux of hydrogen in air is found to from the expression:
  16. Example 14.1 The results for the three different mixtures are summarized in the following table:
