On the interplay between fast reaction and slow diffusion in the concrete carbonation process: a matched-asymptotics approach

Abstract: A matched-asymptotics approach is proposed to show the occurrence of two distinct characteristic length scales in the carbonation process. The separation of these scales arises due to the strong competition between reaction and diffusion effects. We show that for sufficiently large times τ the width of the carbonated region is proportional to √ τ , while the width of the reaction front is proportional to τ p−1 2(p+1) for carbonation-reaction rates with a power law structurewhere k > 0 and p, q > 1 and identify… Show more

“…Similar dimensional arguments suggest that the speed of the reaction strip is directly proportional to 1/ . Motivated by the results reported in [38][39][40], we expect that algebraic connections between and the partial reaction orders p and q (see (23)) can be obtained for models of types 1-3 at least for large times. A singular perturbation study may recover the sharp interface setting via shrinking the reaction strip as goes to zero.…”

“…The most common model used by most of the researchers (e.g. mentioned before [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]) as a basic model that determines the depth of carbonation, x after the time of exposure, t can be expressed in the form:…”

“…the amount of material flowing through a unit cross section per unit time mol/m 2 s, D -is the diffusion coefficient m 2 /s, ϕ -is the concentration of the diffusing substance mol/m 3 , x -is the way of diffusion, m. Fick's first law allows to describe the diffusion process under a constant, unchanging in time, density of the diffusion flux [12,13].…”
