Mass-transfer problems in the electrochemical systems

The problems concerning quantitative analysis of mass-transfer processes in the electrochemical systems (ECS) are briefly reviewed. The interrelation between the mass-transfer problems in the electrochemical and heat systems is considered. Various approaches to the numerical determination of distributions of concentrations of ions of all types and electrochemical potential in the ECS are considered. The methods of allowance for the migration transfer and choosing the boundary conditions for the transfer equations and other problems are considered. Some actual lines of development of the theory of mass-transfer in the ECS are pointed out.
