Abstract

In this paper the pressure gravidiffusive model equation in a single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell is elaborated. In this cell the flat, microporous and symmetric polymeric membrane so-called Nephrophane positioned horizontally separated water and binary (aqueous glucose or aqueous ethanol) or ternary (glucose in 0.2 mol.l-1 aqueous ethanol or ethanol in 0.05 mol.l-1 aqueous glucose) non-electrolyte solutions. The calculations of pressure gravidiffusive effects for the configurations A and B of the single-membrane osmotic-diffusive cell were elaborated. In configuration A solution was placed in compartment below membrane and in configuration B--above membrane. The calculated result are interpreted in terms of the convective instability that increases the diffusive permeability coefficient of complex: concentration boundary layer/membrane/concentration boundary layer.
