Membrane Flux Based on Water Permeability Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Flux through Membrane = Water Permeability Through Membrane*Applied Pressure
J_wM = L_p*P_A
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Flux through Membrane - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second) - Flux through membrane is defined as the rate of movement or transfer of a substance per unit area across a porous barrier known as a membrane.
Water Permeability Through Membrane - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second per Pascal) - Water permeability through membrane is the ability of a material to allow water to pass through it. It is a measure of how easily water can flow through a material's pores.
Applied Pressure - (Measured in Pascal) - Applied Pressure is the pressure that is applied on the object of interest.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Water Permeability Through Membrane: 2.337E-08 Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second per Pascal --> 2.337E-08 Cubic Meter per Square Meter per Second per Pascal No Conversion Required

Hagen Poiseuille Based Flux for Membrane Separation

Go Flux through Membrane = (Membrane Porosity*Pore Diameter^2*Applied Pressure Driving Force)/(32*Liquid Viscosity*Tortuosity*Membrane Thickness)

Liquid Viscosity based on Membrane Resistance

Go Liquid Viscosity = Applied Pressure Driving Force/(Membrane Flow Resistance of Unit Area*Flux through Membrane)

Membrane Flux Based on Resistance

Go Flux through Membrane = Applied Pressure Driving Force/(Membrane Flow Resistance of Unit Area*Liquid Viscosity)

Resistance to flow in Membranes

Go Membrane Flow Resistance of Unit Area = Applied Pressure Driving Force/(Liquid Viscosity*Flux through Membrane)

Membrane Flux Based on Water Permeability Formula

Flux through Membrane = Water Permeability Through Membrane*Applied Pressure
J_wM = L_p*P_A

What is Permeability?

Permeability is a fundamental property of materials and substances that describes their ability to allow the passage or flow of another substance, typically a fluid or gas, through them.

How is the Membrane Permeability Affected by Temperature?

Higher temperatures: Increase fluidity by making the phospholipid molecules in the membrane move around more. This creates wider gaps between the molecules, making the membrane more permeable to small, uncharged molecules.

Lower temperatures: Decrease fluidity by causing the phospholipids to pack tightly together, reducing gaps and making the membrane less permeable.

How to Calculate Membrane Flux Based on Water Permeability?
