New phenomenological model of multicomponent gas diffusion

Аннотация

A new phenomenological model is proposed for diffusion of multicomponent gas mixtures. Obvious general structural relations between the mass diffusion fluxes and the gradients of gas mixture components are obtained within the framework of the model in the case of the multicomponent diffusion coefficients expressed in terms of the “intrinsic” diffusion coefficients of individualmixture components. The molecular mean free path model can be used to estimate the latter.
