چکیده
Notes by ChangHoon Lim 1. Warburg impedance for semi-infinite oscillating diffusion Warburg (Ann. Physik. 1899) is credited with the first solution to the diffusion equation with oscillating concentration at the boundary, which is related to the diffusional (or mass transfer) impedance of electrochemical systems. An interesting point made in the first part of the class is that the very same mathematical model and impedance formula also holds for capacitive charging of a porous electrode with constant electrolyte concentration (i.e. no diffusion) modeled by an RC transmission line, and this effect is often mistaken for diffusional impedance. We start by linearizing the equations for transport and electrochemical reactions to describe the response to a small oscillating voltage. Suppose equation, ) and for linear response (e.g. Nernst

10.626 Lecture Notes, Electrostatic Correlations
Until now, we have developed continuum models for the dynamics of electrolytes at the macroscopic scale, much larger than typical length scales for intermolecular forces. In particular, we have used principles of nonequlibrium thermodynamics, to arrive at general models of interfacial voltage (Nernst equation), reaction kinetics (Butler-Volmer equation), and transport (Poisson-Nernst-Planck equ...
متن کامل10.626 Lecture Notes, Impedance of electrodes
In the previous lecture, we leant about impedance spectroscopy. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is the technique where the cell or electrode impedance is platted versus frequency. Thus, the impedance is measured as a function of the frequency of the AC source. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is a useful method for investigating porous electrodes, which are extensively used in the ...
متن کامل10.626 Lecture Notes, Forced convection in fuel cells II
As discussed in the previous lecture, we are interested in forcing fluid to flow in a fuel cell in order to increase the limiting current, and thus the power output of the device. The model problem considered has a steady uniform flow of fluid carrying the reactant at a constant concentration, c0, into a 2-D channel of height H. In this model we will assume that the fluid velocity profile acros...
متن کامل10.626 Lecture Notes, Ion absorption and intercalation
Adsorption on a surface or intercalation in a bulk solid involves strong particle interactions which go beyond dilute solution theory. For example, in fuel cell, the hydrogen molecules need to attach onto the Pt catalyst and then split into two atoms or protons to be further reacted. Similarly, in Li ion battery, Li must be intercalated into the host crystal and then react with the active mater...

Introduction: Many studies detected factors contributing to the students’ tendency to lecture notes. This study aimed at evaluating the factors affecting students tendency to lecture notes in Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences. Methods: In this descriptive study, 179 students from medicine, nursing & midwifery, health, and Paramedicine schools were selected through stratified random...
