Diffusion coefficients in aqueous 0.05-1.0 M L-ascorbic acid solutions have been measured at 298.15 K by using a modified version of the Stokes diaphragm cell. The diffusion coefficient of un-ionized ascorbic acid molecule at zero concentration has been found to be 1.055 × 10-9 m2 s-1. The diffusion coefficient of an isolated ascorbate ion, C6H7O6-, is about 23 % lower than the molecular form; this indicates, as expected, that ions strongly interact with solvent molecules.

The diffusion behavior of fluid water in nanochannels with hydroxylation of silica gel and silanization of different modified chain lengths was simulated by the equilibrium molecular dynamics method. The diffusion coefficient of fluid water was calculated by the Einstein method and the Green–Kubo method, so as to analyze the change rule between the modification degree of nanochannels and the diffusion coefficient of fluid water. The results showed that the diffusion coefficient of fluid water increased with the length of the modified chain. The average diffusion coefficient of fluid water in the hydroxylated nanochannels was 8.01% of the bulk water diffusion coefficient, and the diffusion coefficients of fluid water in the –(CH2)3CH3, –(CH2)7CH3, and –(CH2)11CH3 nanochannels were 44.10%, 49.72%, and 53.80% of the diffusion coefficients of bulk water, respectively. In the above four wall characteristic models, the diffusion coefficients in the z direction were smaller than those in the other directions. However, with an increase in the silylation degree, the increased self-diffusion coefficient due to the surface effect could basically offset the decreased self-diffusion coefficient owing to the scale effect. In the four nanochannels, when the local diffusion coefficient of fluid water was in the range of 8 Å close to the wall, Dz was greater than Dxy, and beyond the range of 8 Å of the wall, the Dz was smaller than Dxy.

Convective Rolls

The properties of chaotic advection arising from defect turbulence, that is, weak turbulence in the electroconvection of nematic liquid crystals, were experimentally investigated. Defect turbulence is a phenomenon in which fluctuations of convective rolls arise and are globally disturbed while maintaining convective rolls locally. The time-dependent diffusion coefficient, as measured from the motion of a tagged particle driven by the turbulence, was used to clarify the dependence of the type of diffusion on coarse-graining time. The results showed that, as coarse-graining time increases, the type of diffusion changes from superdiffusion → subdiffusion → normal diffusion. The change in diffusive properties over the observed timescale reflects the coexistence of local order and global disorder in the defect turbulence.

Coefficient of 65Zn heterodiffusion in Mg17Al12 intermetallic and in eutectic alloy Mg - 33.4 wt. % Al was measured in the temperature region 598 – 698 K using serial sectioning and residual activity methods. Diffusion coefficient of 65Zn in the intermetallic can be written as DI = 1.7 × 10-2 m2 s-1 exp (-155.0 kJ mol-1 / RT). At temperatures T ≥ 648 K, where the mean diffusion path was greater than the mean interlamellar distance in the eutectic, the effective diffusion coefficient Def = 2.7 × 10-2 m2 s-1 exp (-155.1 kJ mol-1 / RT) was evaluated. At two lower temperatures, the diffusion coefficients 65Zn in interphase boundaries were estimated: Db (623 K) = 1.6 × 10-12 m2 s-1 and Db (598 K) = 4.4 × 10-13 m2 s-1.

Apparent Diffusion

Permeability estimation from induced polarization (IP) measurements is based on a fundamental premise that the characteristic relaxation time [Formula: see text] is related to the effective hydraulic radius [Formula: see text] controlling fluid flow. The approach requires a reliable estimate of the diffusion coefficient of the ions in the electrical double layer. Others have assumed a value for the diffusion coefficient, or postulated different values for clay versus clay-free rocks. We have examined the link between a widely used single estimate of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for an extensive database of sandstone samples, in which mercury porosimetry data confirm that [Formula: see text] is reliably determined from a modification of the Hagen-Poiseuille equation assuming that the electrical tortuosity is equal to the hydraulic tortuosity. Our database does not support the existence of one or two distinct representative diffusion coefficients but instead demonstrates strong evidence for six orders of magnitude of variation in an apparent diffusion coefficient that is well-correlated with [Formula: see text] and the specific surface area per unit pore volume [Formula: see text]. Two scenarios can explain our findings: (1) the length scale defined by [Formula: see text] is not equal to [Formula: see text] and is likely much longer due to the control of pore-surface roughness or (2) the range of diffusion coefficients is large and likely determined by the relative proportions of the different minerals (e.g., silica and clays) making up the rock. In either case, the estimation of [Formula: see text] (and hence permeability) is inherently uncertain from a single characteristic IP relaxation time as considered in this study.

Irreversible Breakdown

The absorption and desorption of water by seven composite materials are diffusion processes, with the diffusion coefficient decreasing with concentration. The magnitude of the diffusion coefficients were consistent with diffusion occurring in the resin phase. Although most materials showed reversible behavior during repeated sorption-desorption cycles, one material showed irreversible breakdown.

Diffusion Activation

A recently developed spectroscopic technique was used to determine oxygen diffusion coefficients as a function of temperature for polystyrene and polycarbonate films. Data were recorded at total pressures <300 Torr over the temperature range 5–45 °C under conditions in which argon, helium, and nitrogen, respectively, were copenetrants. In all cases, the presence of the additional gas caused an increase in the oxygen diffusion coefficient. Arrhenius plots of the data yield (a) a diffusion activation barrier, Eact, and (b) a diffusion coefficient, D0, that represents the condition of "barrier-free" gas transport for the temperature domain over which the Arrhenius plot is linear. For all cases examined in both polystyrene and polycarbonate, D0 increased with an increase in the partial pressure of added gas. In polystyrene, the presence of an additional gas did not change Eact. In polycarbonate, Eact obtained in the presence of helium and argon likewise did not differ from that obtained in the absence of the copenetrant. When nitrogen was the added gas, however, a larger value of Eact was obtained. This latter observation is interpreted to reflect the plasticization of polycarbonate by nitrogen. Eact and D0 data are discussed within the context of a model that distinguishes between dynamic and static elements of free volume in the polymer matrix.

Summary The complex pore structure and storage mechanism of organic-rich ultratight reservoirs make the hydrocarbon transport within these reservoirs complicated and significantly different from conventional oil and gas reservoirs. A substantial fraction of pore volume in the ultratight matrix consists of nanopores in which the notion of viscous flow may become irrelevant. Instead, multiple transport and storage mechanisms should be considered to model fluid transport within the shale matrix, including molecular diffusion, Knudsen diffusion, surface diffusion, and sorption. This paper presents a diffusion-based semianalytical model for a single-component gas transport within an infinite-actingorganic-rich ultratight matrix. The model treats free and sorbed gas as two phases coexisting in nanopores. The overall mass conservation equation for both phases is transformed into one governing equation solely on the basis of the concentration (density) of the free phase. As a result, the partial differential equation (PDE) governing the overall mass transport carries two newly defined nonlinear terms; namely, effective diffusion coefficient, De, and capacity factor, Φ. The De term accounts for the molecular, Knudsen, and surface diffusion coefficients, and the Φ term considers the mass exchange between free and sorbed phases under sorption equilibrium condition. Furthermore, the ratio of De/Φ is recognized as an apparent diffusion coefficient Da, which is a function of free phase concentration. The nonlinear PDE is solved by applying a piecewise-constant-coefficient technique that divides the domain under consideration into an arbitrary number of subdomains. Each subdomain is assigned with a constant Da. The diffusion-based model is validated against numerical simulation. The model is then used to investigate the impact of surface and Knudsen diffusion coefficients, porosity, and adsorption capacity on gas transport within the ultratight formation. Further, the model is used to study gas transport and production from the Barnett, Marcellus, and New Albany shales. The results show that surface diffusion significantly contributes to gas production in shales with large values of surface diffusion coefficient and adsorption capacity and small values of Knudsen diffusion coefficient and total porosity. Thus, neglecting surface diffusion in organic-rich shales may result in the underestimation of gas production.
