Abstract

The diffusional transport of a ternary gaseous mixture of helium, Freon-12, and argon is studied under isothermal conditions by a steady-flow method. The experiments were done at atmospheric pressure and a temperature of 298 K. The data are compared with the theory. It is shown that the mass transfer of the components is influenced by convective flows.
