Abstract

The permeability is calculated for two-layer membranes composed of porous layers with nano- and microsized pores. It is found that, in nanosized pores, the gas transfer occurs in the free-molecular regime in the pore volume and via diffusion along the adsorption layer. The degree of adsorption layer filling is determined from the Langmuir isotherm. The dependence of the diffusion coefficient in the adsorption layer on the degree of surface coverage is taken into account. The transfer in the microsized pored is described in a hydrodynamic regime. The values of the membrane permeability are determined at different orientations with respect to the direction of a gas flow. It is shown that the difference between the permeability values may be as large as 60%.
