1 Transport phenomena 1/16 Transport (kinetic) phenomena: diffusion, electric conductivity, viscosity, heat conduction... Flux of mass, charge, momentum, heat, J = amount (of quantity) transported per unit area (perpendicular to the vector of flux) within time unit Units: energy/heat flux: J m 2 s 1 = W m 2, current density: A m 2 Cause = (generalized, thermodynamic) force F = gradient of a potential (chemical potential/concentration, electric potential, temperature) Small forces linearity J = const F In gases we use the kinetic theory: molecules (simplest: hard spheres) fly through space and sometimes collide

Diffusion macroscopic view 2/16 First Fick Law: Flux J i of compound i (units: mol m 2 s 1 ) J i = D i c i is proportional to the concentration gradient ( c i = grad c i = x, y, ) ( ci c z i = x, c i

2 Diffusion macroscopic view 2/16 First Fick Law: Flux J i of compound i (units: mol m 2 s 1 ) J i = D i c i is proportional to the concentration gradient ( c i = grad c i = x, y, ) ( ci c z i = x, c i y, c ) i z D i = diffusion coefficient (diffusivity) of molecules i, unit: m 2 s 1 Example. A U-shaped pipe of lenght l = 20 cm and cross section A = 0.3 cm 2. One end is in Coca-Cola (11 wt.% of sugar), other end in pure water. How much sugar is transported by diffusion in one day? D sucrose (25 C) = cm 2 s mg For mass concentration in kg m 3, the flux is in kg m 2 s g sucrose in 1 L: cw = 110 g dm 3 = 110 kg m 3 grad cw = cw/l = 550 kg m 4 D = cm 2 s 1 = m 2 s 1 J = D grad cw = kg m 2 s 1 m = JAt = kg m 2 s m s = kg

3 Diffusion microscopic view Flux is given by the mean velocity of molecules v i : 3/16 J i = v i c i Thermodynamic force = grad of the chemical potential: ( ) µi F i = = k BT c N A c i i Difference of chemical potentials = reversible work needed to move a particle (mole) from one state to another where formula µ i = µ i + RT ln(c i/c st ) for infinity dillution was used. Friction force acting against molecule moving by velocity v i through a medium is: F fr i = f i v i where f i is the friction coeficient. Both forces are in equilibrium: F i fr + F i = 0 tj. F i fr = f i v i = f i J i c i = F i = k BT c i c i On comparing with J i = D i c i we get the Einstein equation: D i = k BT f i (also Einstein Smoluchowski equation)

5 Second Fick Law Non-stationary phenomenon (c changes with time). The amount of substance increases within time dτ in volume dv = dxdydz: [J x (x) J x (x + dx)]dydz = dv J x,y,z J = D c c i τ = D i 2 c i (equation of heat conduction) [plot/cukr.sh] 5/16 Example. Coca-Cola in a cylinder (height 10 cm) + pure water (10 cm). What time is needed until the surface concentration = half of bottom concentration? { c τ = c c0 x < l/2 D 2 x 2 c(x, 0) = 0 x > l/2 c(x, τ) = c c 0 π 1 ( ) ( ) 3πx 3 cos exp 32 π 2 l l 2 Dτ [ ( ( πx ) cos exp l π2 l 2 Dτ + 1 ( ) ( 5πx 5 cos exp l ) 52 π 2 l 2 Dτ 4 months ) ]

6 Diffusion and the Brownian motion Instead of for c( r, τ), let us solve the 2nd Fick law for the probability of finding a particle, provided that it sits at origin for τ = 0. We get the Gaussian distribution with half-width τ 1/2 1D: c(x, τ) = (4πDτ) 1/2 exp 3D: c( r, τ) = (4πDτ) 3/2 exp ( x2 4Dτ ) ( ) r2 4Dτ c(x,t) [traj/brown.sh] 6/ t=0 t=1 0.4 t=2 t=3 0.3 t=4 t= x 1D: x 2 = 2Dτ 200 The previous example: τ x 2 /2D = 4 months (x = 0.1 m) y y 0 3D: r 2 = 6Dτ x x

14 Transference numbers [pic/nernstovavrstva.sh] 14/16 Transference number (transport number) of an ion is the fraction of the total current that is carried by that ion during electrolysis. t = I I = I + I Different ions carry different fractions of the current because different ions move at different speeds under the same potential gradient. For K z + ν A z ν (electroneutrality: z c = z c ): here z > 0 I t = v c z v c z + v c z = v v + v = u u + u = z D z D + z D = ν λ ν λ + ν λ Properties: t + t = 1 t t = u u Example.
