Abstract

An experimental study of the temperature dependence of the binary diffusion coefficients (BDCs) was conducted for five binary mixtures of gases: \(\mathrm{H}_{2}{-}\mathrm{N}_{2}, \mathrm{H}_{2}{-}\mathrm{CO}, \mathrm{H}_{2}{-}\mathrm{CH}_{4}, \mathrm{H}_{2}{-}\mathrm{C}_{2}\mathrm{H}_{6}\), and \(\mathrm{H}_{2}{-}\mathrm{C}_{3}\mathrm{H}_{8}\). Measurements were carried out with the use of a steady-flow method in the temperature range from 250 K to 900 K and the pressure range from 0.1 MPa to 15 MPa. The determination of the BDCs is based on analysis of the volume fraction of the diffusing gas in the gas flow. The experimental data were compared with the results of calculations by the proposed formula evaluated within the framework of the elementary kinetic theory. The obtained results exhibit considerably good agreement with the experimental data within the experimental error. The results of investigations of the temperature dependence of the BDCs show that this dependence can be fitted with a power law only at atmospheric pressure.
