DoubleLayerCapacitance

Struct DoubleLayerCapacitance 

Source
pub struct DoubleLayerCapacitance {
    pub concentration_mol_m3: f64,
    pub permittivity: f64,
    pub temperature: f64,
}
Expand description

Gouy-Chapman-Stern (GCS) model for the electrical double layer.

Models the differential capacitance of the diffuse layer as a function of potential difference across the Helmholtz layer.

The Debye length κ⁻¹ = sqrt(ε·RT / (2·n0·F²)) where n0 is bulk ion concentration [mol/m³] and ε is permittivity [F/m].

Fields§

§concentration_mol_m3: f64

Bulk ion concentration [mol/m³] (symmetric 1:1 electrolyte)

§permittivity: f64

Permittivity of solvent [F/m] (water ≈ 78.5 × ε_0)

§temperature: f64

Temperature [K]
