Limiting current data are obtained using diffusion-controlled cathodic reduction of ferricyanide ion at the microelectrodes fixed on the electrode support and cell wall in an electrolytic cell in the presence of a rotating radial flow 2- blade flat turbine. The mass transfer coefficient is increased with increases in rotational speed, diameter of the turbine, width of the turbine blade and flow rate of the electrolyte
