Diffusion velocities
To characterize the motion of species A j relative to the
local motion of the stream, we need to introduce new
relative velocities:
Diffusion velocity w.r.t. u:

Things to remember
Careful!

ONLY when
NA + NB = 0
Question:
Why
J*A =-cDABx A
and not
J*A =-DABcA ??

Multicomponent systems
Diffusion in a multicomponent system of ideal gases is described
by the Stefan-Maxwell equations:
n
1
xi =
xi N j x j N i
j=1 cDij
(12)
cDABx A = x A N B (1 x A ) N A
cDABx A = x A N B + x A N A N A
N A = cDABx A + x A ( N B + N A )
Multicomponent systems
For some (but not all) systems, we may be able to define
effective binary diffusivities Dim than do not depend on the
other species. The Stefan-Maxwell equations then become:
1
xi N j x j N i
j=1 cDim
xi =
cDimxi = xi N j x j N i
j=1
j=1
j=1
cDimxi = xi N j N i x j
n
N i = cDimxi + xi N j
j=1

Conservation of mass
By adding (15) and (16) and noting that
rA + rB = 0
from the conservation of mass, we finally obtain:

Conservation of mass
If we work with moles:

since

(20)
N A + N B = cA u A + cB u B = cu*
Conservation of mass
Using equation (11) [ Fick's Law]:
cA
+ cDABx A + x A ( N A + N B ) = RA*
t
cA
+ ( cDABx A ) + x A cu* = RA*
t
cA
+ cA u* + ( cDABx A ) = RA*
t
(21)
Conservation of mass
Note that:
n A = cDABx A + gA ( n A + n B )
n A = cDABx A + gA u
n A = cDABx A + A u
