Hi,

I have an udf code for the mass diffusivity of a mixture, which is based on the kinetic theory of Chapman. The horizontal flow goes through a channel, which has an attached porous zone on the top. There are four species in my model.

When I used the kinetic theory option for mass diffusivity, there is a species concentration difference between the porous zone and channel because of the viscous resistance of the porous zone. However, when I used the udf code, there is no difference between the two zones.

What would be the reason for this?

Thank you,
Yije
