Boundary Conditions

For Equi molar counter diffusion

=>

Solve for concentration profile CA vs z

Diffusion through Stagnant Gas (Evaporation or


gas absorption)
Gas B is stagnant then there is no net flux of B
with respect to a fixed coordinate.

External mass transfer / boundary layer


Diffusion through a film to a catalyst particle
CAb= concn of gas A at the ext. boundary of gas film B (dilute gas)
Cas = at the external cat surface

Correlation for mass transfer for flow around a


spherical pellet

Frossling correlation

For rapid reaction (mass tr. Controlled) : sp. reaction rate constant is much
greater than mass
transfer coefficient

For slow reaction/Kinetic controlled

Transdermal Drug Delivery


FA = Ap WA = Ap (CAP 0)/ R
R= Rp + 1/DAB1 + 2/DAB2

R= TOTAL RESISTANCE
Rp= patch resistance (DRUG DELIVERY SOURCE CA=
H CAb)

H = HENERY CONSTANT

Rate of drug delivery to blood =


WA= (CA- CAs)DAB1/1 = (CAs-0) DAB2/2
