What is it about?
A simple parallel plate electrochemical reactor was studied experimentally and numerically in order to verify a numerical method based on the boundary layer, proposed as a tool in the process of electrochemical reactor’s design.

Why is it important?
This method was used to analyze the mass transport coefficient km. These results show that the method based on CFD represent an attractive option for evaluating any electrochemical reactor configuration, even with complex flow distributions far from fully developed flow.
Perspectives
The development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), may impact in the design of electrochemical reactors by elucidating the dynamic condition under which the reactions take place.
