Equimolar Counter Diffusion in Arnold Cell The Arnold cell, as shown in the figure, is maintained at 25oC and 1 atm. Under the conditions, the saturated humidity of water in air is 0.0189 lb H2O/lb dry air and the diffusivity of water vapor in air is 0.22 cm2/s. a) Find the initial evaporation rate of water, in the unit of centimeter per second of surface velocity. (Ans: 4.8 �10-7 cm/s)
