How far in sheet from high-pressure side will concentration


A sheet of steel 2.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 900?C and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. The diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 1.2 X 10-10 m2/s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.0 X 10-7 kg/m2-s. Also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 2 kg/m3. How far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 0.5 kg/m3? Assume a linear concentration profile.
