Abstract
Response of an electrodiffusion friction sensor to a finite step of the wall shear rate is studied by numerically solving the relevant mass-transfer problem. The resulting numerical data on transient currents are treated further to provide reasonably accurate analytical representations. Existing approximations to the general response operator are checked by using the obtained exact solution.
