Abstract:The integral balance method has been used to obtain an approximate analytical solution of a nonlinear boundary value problem which arises in the theory of diffusion with a concentration-dependent coefficient. It is the purpose of this paper to give an interpretation of the supposition of interface reactions which obey the law of kinetic mass action.Nomenclature C(Z,t) concentration - C 0 concentration at initial time - D diffusivity - D 0 diffusivity at initial time - F(t) a function of time - K 0 half-order reaction rate constant - k 1 first-order reaction rate constant - k 2 second-order reaction rate constante - L characteristic length - n parameter - t time - Z space variable Dimensionless variables and similarity criteria
