Consider two species, x and o
Concentration of “x” is larger on the left, of “o” is larger on the right
Species diffuse through each other
they move from regions of high to low concentrations
Think of perfume in a room
Mass flux is driven by concentration difference
Analogously, heat transfer is driven by temperature differences
There may also be bulk motion of the mixture (advection, like wind)
Total rate of mass flux: 𝑚 " = 𝑚 𝑥 " + 𝑚 𝑜 " 𝑘𝑔 𝑠∗ 𝑚 2 (sum of component mass flux)

For 𝑌 𝐴,∞ =0
𝑚 𝐴 " 𝜌 𝒟 𝐴𝐵 𝐿 = ln 1 1− 𝑌 𝐴,𝑖 (dimensionless)
𝑚 𝐴 " increases slowly for small 𝑌 𝐴,𝑖

8. Liquid-Vapor Interface Boundary Condition
At interface need 𝑌 𝐴,𝑖 = 𝑀 𝐴 𝑀 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 = 𝑁 𝐴 𝑁 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑀𝑊 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝑀𝑖𝑥 = 𝜒 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝑀𝑖𝑥
𝑀𝑊 𝑀𝑖𝑥 = 𝑀 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑁 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 = 𝑁 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐴 + 𝑁 𝐵 𝑀𝑊 𝐵 𝑁 𝑇𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 = 𝜒 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐴 + 1− 𝜒 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐵
So 𝑌 𝐴,𝑖 = 𝜒 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐴 𝜒 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐴 + 1− 𝜒 𝐴 𝑀𝑊 𝐵 = 𝜒 𝐴 −1 𝑀𝑊 𝐵 𝑀𝑊 𝐴

9. Clausius-Clapeyron Equation (page 18)
Relates saturation pressure at a given temperature to the saturation conditions at another temperature and pressure
𝑃 1 𝑃 2 𝑑𝑃 𝑆𝑎𝑡 𝑃 𝑆𝑎𝑡 = ℎ 𝑓𝑔 𝑅 𝑇 1 𝑇 2 𝑑𝑇 𝑆𝑎𝑡 𝑇 𝑆𝑎𝑡 2

If given 𝑇 1 , 𝑃 1 , ℎ 𝑓𝑔 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑇 2 , we can use this to find 𝑃 1

10. Problem 3.9
Consider liquid n-hexane in a 50-mm-diameter graduated cylinder. Air blows across the top of the cylinder. The distance from the liquid- air interface to the open end of the cylinder is 20 cm. Assume the diffusivity of n-hexane is 8.8x10-6 m2/s. The liquid n-hexane is at 25C. Estimate the evaporation rate of the n-hexane. (Hint: review the Clausius-Clapeyron relation a applied in Example 3.1)
