Applied Energy, 1988, vol. 29, issue 1, 57-71

Abstract: The effect of molecular diffusion of salt is not only significant for the smoothing process during the pond's establishment, but also for its operation. An analysis is presented to calculate the rate of salt transport within an isothermal liquid column, according to the molecular diffusion process. Salt-transport measurements in laboratory pond models provide experimental data in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.
