Abstract:In this study, we examine the movement of ions that are in a water solution which flows along a duct, due to the existence of an electric field, taking into account the size of the ions, a phenomenon known as the steric effect. We compare the results from the above model with the classical one (the one that uses the Boltzmann distribution where ions are considered dimensionless) for various parameters such as surface charge density, electric field and differential capacitance. It is shown that for dilute water… Show more
