Abstract

The one-dimensional diffusion of gas molecules in porous media involves molecular interactions between gas molecules as well as collisions between gas molecules and the porous media (Joshi et al. in J. Phys. D Appl. Phys. 40:7593–7600, 2007 [1], Cannarozzo et al. in J. Appl. Electrochem. 38:1011–1018, 2008 [2], Veldsink et al. in Chem. Eng. J. Biochem. Eng. J. 57:115–125, 1995 [3]).
