摘要：When the channel height is reduced to a small value such as on the scales of 10 nm or 100 nm, the physical adsorbed layers on the channel walls will participate in the flow, although intermediate between them is a continuum fluid flow. The multiscale simulation results are presented for this multiscale mass transfer in a narrow slit pore based on the derived flow equations. The results are respectively compared with those calculated from conventional continuum flow theory and from the theory based on the solid layer assumption, when the fluid-wall interaction is respectively weak, medium and strong. The total mass flow rate of the two adsorbed layers is also compared with the mass flow rate of the intermediate continuum fluid. The obtained results show the importance of the incorporation of the adsorbed layer flow by the multiscale scheme when calculating the transferred mass in a microchannel.
