You can assume the concentration only varies in the funnel axial direction (x direction) and does not change in the radial or angular direction. Your answer should have a unit of mole/(m? s) and you only need to enter the numerical value in the box below

Question
Consider steady 2D diffusion through a funnel. The funnel radius varies linearly with the distance along the
funnel axis according to the following formula: rx=ro*(1+x/L). ro = 1mm, L=1cm.
Use Fick's law, find the steady state flux at x=L/2, given the following boundary conditions:
X=0
Cx= Co = 3.9 M
x=L
Cx= CL = 1.5 M
The diffusion coefficient D = 2.4x10-6 m?/s. You can assume the concentration only varies in the funnel axial
direction (x direction) and does not change in the radial or angular direction. Your answer should have a unit of
mole/(m? s) and you only need to enter the numerical value in the box below
