What is the criterion for using lumped mass capacity?

What will be an ideal response?


The value of the mass transfer Biot number needs to be less than about 0.1 for lumped
mass capacity to be appropriate. The mass transfer Biot number is the ratio of the
convective mass transfer coefficient times a characteristic length to the self-diffusivity of
the substance diffusing.
