Solutions for the concentration profiles and mass transfer rates are found for various wall Sherwood numbers. Use is made of the confluent hypergeometric function in the solution, and its advantage over the previously used series solution is pointed out. Perturbation solutions are also presented for both large and small values of the wall Sherwood number.
