Conversion of Maxwell-Stefan into Fick diffusion coefficients

Conversion of Maxwell-Stefan into Fick diffusion coefficients

(OP)
Hi everyone,

I have Maxwell-Stefan and self diffusion coefficients for a binary mixture, and would like to have the Fick's ones. What Wikipedia says to the conversion: "Only the diffusion coefficients for the binary and ternary case can be determined with reasonable effort." Well, I have a binary case, so it should be possible, somehow... But I haven't found the way to do it yet.

May be somebody here can help me?

Greetings,
linch

Take a look at:

"Multicomponent Mass transfer" from Ross Taylor and R.Krishna
Chap.4.1.1 : Relationship between Fick and MS diffusion coefficients

Have a nice we!
