Carbon mass transfer into composite slabs under the effect of non-Fickian diffusion model
Mechanisms of mass transfer into composite thin slabs consisting of two thin metal layers in perfect contact using the hyperbolic mass conduction model have been studied. The non-Fickian phenomena are analyzed by comparison of the solutions between Fickian and non-Fickian equations. The effects of diffusion ratio of carbon, density ratio, and thermal relaxation time on the spatial and transient behavior of the composite slabs are investigated semi-analytically using the Laplace transformation technique.
