T H E o r i g i n a l a n a l y s i s by D a r k e n I of i s o t h e r m a l diffusion in b i n a r y s y s t e m s has o v e r the y e a r s p r o v i d e d a convenient b a s i s for the d e t e r m i n a t i o n of i n t r i n s i c d i f fusion c o e f f i c i e n t s and to r e l a t e i n t r i n s i c and t r a c e r diffusion c o e f f i c i e n t s through t h e r m o d y n a m i c data. A m o d i f i c a t i o n of D a r k e n ' s a n a l y s i s was p r o p o s e d b y Manning 2 to include a v a c a n c y wind t e r m in the e q u a tions r e l a t i n g the K i r k e n d a l l shift to the t r a c e r diffusion c o e f f i c i e n t s . In a l a t e r p a p e r , Manning 3 showed how v a c a n c y f l u x e s can affect i n t r i n s i c diffusion and d e r i v e d r e l a t i o n s b e t w e e n i n t r i n s i c and t r a c e r c o e f f i c i e n t s which i n c o r p o r a t e d v a c a n c y wind e f f e c t s .
