  2. Mass diffusivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_diffusivity

    The diffusion coefficient in solids at different temperatures is generally found to be well predicted by the Arrhenius equation: = ⁡ where D is the diffusion coefficient (in m 2 /s), D 0 is the maximal diffusion coefficient (at infinite temperature; in m 2 /s),

  3. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    In dilute aqueous solutions the diffusion coefficients of most ions are similar and have values that at room temperature are in the range of (0.6–2) × 10 −9 m 2 /s. For biological molecules the diffusion coefficients normally range from 10 −10 to 10 −11 m 2 /s.

  4. Molecular diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_diffusion

    The self-diffusion coefficient of water has been experimentally determined with high accuracy and thus serves often as a reference value for measurements on other liquids. The self-diffusion coefficient of neat water is: 2.299·10 −9 m 2 ·s −1 at 25 °C and 1.261·10 −9 m 2 ·s −1 at 4 °C. [2]

  5. Einstein relation (kinetic theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_relation_(kinetic...

    D is the diffusion coefficient; μ is the "mobility", or the ratio of the particle's terminal drift velocity to an applied force, μ = v d /F; k B is the Boltzmann constant; T is the absolute temperature. This equation is an early example of a fluctuation-dissipation relation. [7]

  6. Maxwell–Stefan diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell–Stefan_diffusion

    Thermal diffusion coefficients vs. temperature, for air at normal pressure The Maxwell–Stefan diffusion (or Stefan–Maxwell diffusion ) is a model for describing diffusion in multicomponent systems.

  7. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    The temperature approaches a linear function because that is the stable solution of the equation: wherever temperature has a nonzero second spatial derivative, the time derivative is nonzero as well. The heat equation implies that peaks ( local maxima ) of u {\displaystyle u} will be gradually eroded down, while depressions ( local minima ...

  8. Diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion

    The diffusion coefficient is the coefficient in the Fick's first law = /, where J is the diffusion flux (amount of substance) per unit area per unit time, n (for ideal mixtures) is the concentration, x is the position [length].

  9. Convection–diffusion equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection–diffusion...

    c is the variable of interest (species concentration for mass transfer, temperature for heat transfer), D is the diffusivity (also called diffusion coefficient), such as mass diffusivity for particle motion or thermal diffusivity for heat transport, v is the velocity field that the quantity is moving with. It is a function of time and space.
