5 The velocity of B through the membrane, UB, is given by Darcy’s law
UB = K(Ps – Pr)
where K is the membrane permeability, Ps is the shell-side pressure, and Pr the reactor side pressure.
where, as before, a is the membrane surface area per unit volume, CB0 is the entering concentration of B, and Vt is the total reactor volume.
