As one of the methods to evaluate the durability performance of reinforced concrete structure for the deterioration due to chloride attack, there is a migration test method. The effective diffusion coefficient by migration test method fluctuates with changes in the pore structure of concrete. In this study, focused on the changes of the pore structure with elapse of age of concrete, the objective of this study is to assess the influence exerted on electro-migration characteristic caused by the type of aggregates and with the condition of early age curing. It is confirmed that the resistibility to the movement by the migration test method of the chloride ion was increased by using non-ferrous slag fine aggregates. In the test specimen using sandstone of 40-65% of water-cement ratio, it is presumed that the increase in the effective diffusion coefficient of chloride ion is caused by the fact that the volume of continuous pore or pore size by the curing method and age of concrete become bigger.

Through the measured effective diffusion coefficients of Dagang vacuum residue supercritical fluid extraction and fractionation (SFEF) fractions in FCC catalysts and SiO2model catalysts, the relation between pore size of catalyst and effective diffusion coefficient was researched and the restricted diffusion factor was calculated. The restricted diffusion factor in FCC catalysts is less than 1 and it is 1~2 times larger in catalyst with polystyrene (PS) template than in conventional FCC catalyst without template, indicating that the diffusion of SFEF fractions in the two FCC catalysts is restricted by the pore. When the average molecular diameter is less than 1.8 nm, the diffusion of SFEF fractions in SiO2model catalyst which average pore diameter larger than 5.6 nm is unrestricted. The diffusion is restricted in the catalyst pores of less than 8 nm for SFEF fractions which diameter more than 1.8 nm. The tortuosity factor of SiO2model catalyst is obtained to be 2.87, within the range of empirical value. The effective diffusion coefficient of the SFEF fractions in SiO2model catalyst is two orders of magnitude larger than that in FCC catalyst with the same average pore diameter. This indicate that besides the ratio of molecular diameter to the pore diameter λ, the effective diffusion coefficient is also closely related to the pore structure of catalyst. Because SiO2model catalyst has uniform pore size, the diffusion coefficient can be precisely correlated with pore size of catalyst, so it is a good model material for catalyst internal diffusion investigation.

The effective factors (η) of a NiMo/BK catalyst are greater than that of the traditional NiMo/Al2O3; the effective diffusion coefficient (De) decreases with the increasing molecular size of the model sulfides.

We considered effective diffusion, characterized by magnitudes of effective diffusion coefficients, in order to quantify mass transport due to the onset and development of elastic instabilities. Effective diffusion coefficient magnitudes were determined using different analytic approaches, as they were applied to tracked visualizations of fluorescein dye front variations, as circumferential advection was imposed upon a flow environment produced using a rotating Couette flow arrangement. Effective diffusion coefficient results were provided for a range of flow shear rates, which were produced using different Couette flow rotation speeds and two different flow environment fluid depths. To visualize the flow behavior within the rotating Couette flow environment, minute amounts of fluorescein dye were injected into the center of the flow container using a syringe pump. This dye was then redistributed within the flow by radial diffusion only when no disk rotation was used, and by radial diffusion and by circumferential advection when disk rotation was present. Associated effective diffusion coefficient values, for the latter arrangement, were compared to coefficients values with no disk rotation, which were due to molecular diffusion alone, in order to quantify enhancements due to elastic instabilities. Experiments were conducted using viscoelastic fluids, which were based on a 65% sucrose solution, with different polymer concentrations ranging from 0 ppm to 300 ppm. Associated Reynolds numbers based on the fluid depth and radially averaged maximum flow velocity ranged from 0.00 to 0.5. The resulting effective diffusion coefficient values for different flow shear rates and polymer concentrations quantified the onset of elastic instabilities, as well as significant and dramatic changes to local mass transport magnitudes, which are associated with the further development of elastic instabilities.
