Abstract

The paper studies the local variation of the concentration of a neutral dilute solution during its radial flow around a spherical cavity in the approximations of an adsorption layer and the Langmuir adsorption kinetics. The authors used the boundary‐layer method and the method of asymptotic series expansion of the solution in a small parameter, which is the ratio of the time of establishing an adsorption equilibrium to the time of establishing a steady diffusion layer around the cavity. The equations obtained for a zeroth approximation were studied analytically and numerically. In the case of high‐frequency oscillations of the cavity in the solution, a solution of the problem was found that corresponds to the process of “straightened” adsorption or “pumping” an admixture into the adsorption layer.
