Common Boundary Conditions:
1. Concentration is specified at the surface.2. The mass flux normal to a surface maybe given.3. At solid- fluid interfaces, convection applies: NA = kc∆cA.4. The rate of chemical reaction at the surface can be specified.
♪ At interfaces, concentration is not necessarily continuous.
