Interphase Reaction > Reactions

Details the reactions that take place between a fluid film phase and a neighbouring gas phase.

[reaction]
For fluid film interphase reactions, the defined reaction Type can only be Interphase.
Reactants
Reactant components of the reaction at the interphase between the fluid film and the gas phase.
Products
Product components of the reaction at the interphase between the fluid film and the gas phase.
Properties
Reaction rate for the reaction at the interphase between the fluid film and the gas phase Eqn. (3587).
Reaction Coefficient
Specifies the reaction coefficient k i for the reaction rate Eqn. (3587). For reactions at the interphase between the fluid film and gas phase, only a user-defined reaction coefficient is available.

Field Functions

Interphase Transfer Species Source of [reaction component] of [phase interaction]
Refers to the net source term SYi for species Yi due to the interphase reactions.
See equations Eqn. (3351) and Eqn. (3352).
Interphase Transfer Species Source Jacobian of [reaction component] of [phase interaction]
Refers to the net Jacobian of the source term SYi for species Yi, defined as SYiYi, which represents the derivative of source term SYi with respect to the mass fraction of species Yi.
