A Model for Coupled Diffusion Reactions in Mn-Zn Ferrites - Generalization of the Fickss First Law
To describe the coupled diffusion reactions of the Mn2+ and the Mn3+ ions oxidation in Mn-Zn ferrites, we have generalized the Fick’s first law. Such an equation is available to describe the diffusion of a species in a concentration gradient with additional conditions of minimal and maximal values varying at each point in the material. The diffusion equations have then been solved by using the finite element method.
