- Wicke-Kallenbach (WK) cells are often used for studying separation and component transport in porous material. In order to obtain important transport parameters, mathematical models are frequently developed but they generally consider the fluid phase in the WK compartments to be free of concentration gradients and thus external mass transport resistance is neglected. The present work is a detailed study of how the external transport influences permeation through porous material in a WK cell. External mass transfer effects were demonstrated experimentally and they were further studied from three-dimensional (3-D) model simulations. Film theory was applied to develop an appropriate Sherwood number correlation for the external mass transport coefficient. It was shown that the flow in the compartment and geometrical factors of the WK cell had significant influences on the permeation. It was found that introducing the proposed external mass transport correlation into a simplified one-dimensional (1-D) model was adequate to reproduce results from both the experimental data and the 3-D model.

- Transient two dimensional (2-D) and three dimensional (3-D) single channel models (SCMs) describing transport of NOx into a NaZSM-5 film and kinetics for reactions forming nitrate species were developed. The film consisted of a continuous thin layer of inter-grown NaZSM-5 crystals supported on a cordierite monolith support. The 2-D model which included a comprehensive transport model was developed for studying the adsorption kinetics, whereas the more rigorous 3-D model was used to provide a better picture of radial and axial concentration and velocity variations in the monolith channel and the film. The overall adsorption-desorption mechanism, consisting of two competing reaction schemes for nitrate formation, was sufficient to predict the dynamic development of surface nitrate species. The simulation results showed that the adsorption is strongly influenced by transport resistance in the NaZSM-5 film. Also, the effective diffusion of NOx in the NaZSM-5 film is apparently surface nitrate concentration dependent.
