Mass Transfer Model for Coated Urea Particle in Controlling-Release Process
Abstract:
Based on mass conservation and Fick’s diffusion law, a model for describing the nutrient release from coated urea particles was proposed. This model was verified by the release data of three novel paraffin- rosin coated urea in distilled water. The results indicate that the model is effective in describing and predicting the delivery behaviors for a diffusion-controlled coated- urea and their correlation coefficients R2 are 0.9976, 0.9973 and 0.9984, respectively. The model shows that the nutrient release rate for coated urea is direct proportion to effective diffusion coefficient Deff, inverse proportion to diameter’s square of urea granule and inverse proportion to the coating thickness.
