Homework Set #10: Due date: 12/04/06, by 11:00 am. Problem # 1: Recall the example of evaporation of component A contained in a test tube. (a) By neglecting the convective flux of component A, show that this leads to () 1 12 21 AA zz cD Nx = =− A x (b) What error (in percentage) is made in the determination of D in the example 18.2-2 in BSL if the result in (a) is used? Answer: a. Without the convection term, the total molar flux of A is equal to the diffusion flux of A. For steady state ` Since c and D are constant, thus ( ) . A x x dx const dz z z == Therefore, 1 cD = A x b. Error in the determination of D in the example 18.2-2 To get the solution of Example 18.2-2 by using the result in (a), we make the following calculation with the help of the equation of state for an ideal gas.
