Mass-transfer coefficient for water at silica surfaces: Effect of surface dissolution?

In earlier evaluations of literature results, it was found that the mass transfer when storing silica in liquid water was significantly greater than in tests in a steam atmosphere under saturation vapor pressure. In the literature, different glass qualities were compared and it is conceivable that small material differences may lead to the observed results. On the other hand, it can be shown qualitatively that there is also the possibility of mass removal through dissolution, which is different for liquid water and saturated steam. This is the subject to be addressed in this report.
