"Comparison of the flow of permanent and condensable gases through an asymmetric porous membrane";
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, 88 (2016), 11; 1779 - 1787.



English abstract:
Porous inorganic membranes are usually composed of several layers, which are asymmetric with respect to the flow direction. For permanent gases, investigations about the influence of the flow direction on the mass flux through an asymmetric ceramic membrane were previously performed and can be found in literature. Mass flow differences between the two flow directions were calculated. Here the flow of condensable gases, i.e., of vapors, through the same membrane is analyzed and it is shown that the mass flow might be up to 40 % larger in one direction than in the other direction.

Keywords:
Asymmetric membrane, Condensation, Gas transport
