Flm oncept ear a old ear the gas-sold nterface, there exts a regon of relatvely slow movng gas. Gas velocty becomes zero at the sold surface (o slp condton) Hydrodynamc boundary layer If the sold surface s at a dfferent concentraton then a concentraton boundary layer exsts. Dffuson-convecton transport n ths boundary layer s Represented by a stagnant regon near the sold flm.
