Connection between electrical conductivity and diffusion coefficient of a conductive porous material filled with electrolyte

The paper focuses on the cross-property connection between the effective electrical conductivity and the overall mass transfer coefficient of a two phase material. The two properties are expressed in terms of the tortuosity parameter which generalized to the case of a material with two conductive phases. Elimination of this parameter yields the cross-property connection. The theoretical derivation is verified by comparison with computer simulation.
