                           On the basis of the closure problems given by Eqs. (6.223a) through (6.226), we
                           conclude that there is a single tensor that describes the tortuosity for species A. This
                           means that Eq. (6.228) can be expressed as

                           each other in the manner indicated by Eqs. (6.230). The generic closure problem can
                           be expressed as
