Abstract
In the first accompanying paper we derived an exponentially expanding mesh for use in the simulation of diffusion processes at microdisc ele ctrodes. In this paper we use this strategy in obtaining a solution fo r chronoamperometry at a microdisc. We show that it is possible to obt ain accuracy to better than 0.25% from a single simulation using the s ame mesh at all times of interest. Demands on computing resources are light, with a full simulation from switch on through to near steady st ate taking just a few minutes of CPU time. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S .A.
