Surface Properties
Use the Surface Properties node to define the density of sites, the site occupancy number, and the surface diffusion.
Species Conservation on Deforming Geometry
The Compensate for boundary stretching check box is selected by default. Click to clear the check box if required.
Sites
Enter a value or expression for the Density of sites Γs (SI unit: mol/m2). The default is 2 x 10-5 mol/m2.
Enter a Site occupancy number σi (dimensionless), indicating how many surface sites a surface species block upon adsorption.
This section is only present if the number of surface species is 1 or higher.
Surface Diffusion
Select a Surface material from the list. The default is None.
For each surface concentration species, the default Diffusion coefficient Di (SI unit: m2/s) is User defined. Select Isotropic, Diagonal, Symmetric, or Anisotropic depending on the characteristics of the surface, and then enter values or expressions in the field or matrix.
This section is only present if the number of surface species is 1 or higher.
Bulk Species
For each bulk species enter the Molar mass Mi (SI unit: kg/mol) and the Density ρi (SI unit: kg/m3). The default molar mass is 0.144 kg/mol and the default density is 5320 kg/m3).
This section is only present if the number of bulk species is 1 or higher.
