Species mass transfer model clarification
 
1 Attachment(s)
I'm a bit confused about the "species mass transfer" model for multiphase flows. I could not find specific information about how this mass transfer mechanism works in the theory guide/user guide.

For example:
- What is/are the governing equation(s) for this mechanism?
- Is it used to model Fickian diffusion, or phase change (or both)?
- What does the "interphase mass transfer coefficient" do, and how is it calculated?
- What happens if interphase mass transfer coefficient is set to zero?

Thanks!

Replying because I actually just found the proper documentation for it:

Hope this helps someone in the future.
