  2. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    Fick's first law relates the diffusive flux to the gradient of the concentration. It postulates that the flux goes from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration, with a magnitude that is proportional to the concentration gradient (spatial derivative), or in simplistic terms the concept that a solute will move from a region of high concentration to a region of low ...

  3. Finite volume method for one-dimensional steady state diffusion

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    It states that the difference between the diffusive flux Fick's laws of diffusion of through the east and west faces of some volume corresponds to the change in the quantity in that volume. The diffusive coefficient of ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } and d ϕ d x {\displaystyle {\frac {d\phi }{dx}}} are required in order to reach a useful conclusion.

  4. Diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion

    Fick's law describes diffusion of an admixture in a medium. The concentration of this admixture should be small and the gradient of this concentration should be also small. The driving force of diffusion in Fick's law is the antigradient of concentration, − ∇ n {\displaystyle -\nabla n} .

  5. Molecular diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_diffusion

    This relationship is expressed by Fick's law N A = − D A B d C A d x {\displaystyle N_{A}=-D_{AB}{\frac {dC_{A}}{dx}}} (only applicable for no bulk motion) where D is the diffusivity of A through B, proportional to the average molecular velocity and, therefore dependent on the temperature and pressure of gases.

  6. List of eponymous laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_eponymous_laws

    Discovered and stated by Isaac Newton (1643–1727), they can be formulated, in modern terms, as follows: First law: A body remains at rest, or keeps moving in a straight line (at a constant velocity), unless acted upon by a net outside force. Second law: The acceleration of an object of constant mass is proportional to the net force acting ...

  7. Finite volume method for two dimensional diffusion problem

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    The boundary side coefficient is set to zero (cutting the link with the boundary) and the flux crossing this boundary is introduced as a source which is appended to any existing and terms. Subsequently the resulting set of equations is solved to obtain the two dimensional distribution of the property φ {\displaystyle \varphi {}}

  9. Passive transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_transport

    Passive diffusion across a cell membrane.. Passive transport is a type of membrane transport that does not require energy to move substances across cell membranes. [1] [2] Instead of using cellular energy, like active transport, [3] passive transport relies on the second law of thermodynamics to drive the movement of substances across cell membranes.
