Abstract
Back electrical motive force (emf) measurements with spiral electrodia lysis (SpED) modules showed that obtaining the profile of the back emf transient curves during depolarization is difficult from the Nernst m odel, and the assumption of a linear concentration profile in a stirre d polarized boundary layer is oversimplified. A non-linear concentrati on distribution model derived from the error function is introduced.
