Impingement Surface

An analysis is made of the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics associated with the impingement of a slot jet which issues from a delivery duct with a nonuniform velocity profile. Consideration is given to velocity profiles similar to that for a fully developed laminar channel flow. The velocity field within the impinging jet is solved for within the framework of an inviscid flow model. Results from the inviscid solution are used as input for the analysis of the boundary layer heat or mass transfer on the impingement surface. The stagnation point heat (or mass) transfer coefficients corresponding to the initially nonuniform velocity profile are found to be almost twice as large as those for an initially flat velocity profile. Furthermore, the transfer coefficients are insensitive to the separation distance between the duct exit and the impingement surface, within the range investigated. The analytical results compared satisfactorily with experimentally determined mass transfer coefficients.

Theoretical relation is derived describing the mass transfer into the liquid in turbulent flow with steady velocity profile, at high Schmidt numbers Sc ≥ 103 in the concentration entrance section. Graphical dependences describing the effect of parameters of the model on mass transfer coefficients are presented and discussed. It is demonstrated that for the limiting cases the derived theoretical solution transforms into familiar relations (asymptotes).

Air Jet

Experiments were performed to determine mass transfer coefficients for evaporation from a water surface on which an air jet impinged. During the course of the experiments, parametric variations were made of the jet velocity and diameter, the separation distance between the jet origin and the water surface, the diameter of the water surface, and the degree of insulation of the water containment pan. It was found that for all of the investigated operating conditions, the dimensionless mass transfer coefficient varied with the 0.8 power of the jet Reynolds number. Furthermore, the transfer coefficient decreased linearly as the separation distance between the jet origin and the water surface increased, with the most significant decreases occurring at relatively small values of the surface-to-jet diameter ratio. At larger diameter ratios, the transfer coefficient was relatively insensitive to the separation. In general, the larger the diameter of the water surface, the lower the transfer coefficient. Comparisons with the literature showed that the dimensionless mass transfer coefficients for impingement on a liquid surface are lower than those for impingement on a solid surface.

Chlorinated Organic

Both Henry's constants and volumetric mass transfer coefficients (KLa) of eight priority chlorinated organic compounds including 1,1-dichloroethene, methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, and 1,4-dichlorobenzene in an air stripping packed column were investigated in this study. The liquid and gas phase EPICS (Equilibrium Partition in Closed System) and direct calculating methods were applied to determine the Henry's constants of VOCs. The interference of co-solute on Henry's constants was also investigated. Experimental results indicated that decrease in Henry's constants of VOCs was observed in the presence of humic acid but no apparent effect on Henry's constants was detected when there was NaCl and surfactant in solution. Four different configurations of packing media including Intalox Saddle, Super Intalox Saddle, Telleret, and Hedgehog made of polypropylene were respectively packed in the air stripping tower and investigated in the study. The dependence of hydraulic loading, air-water ratio, and configurations of packing media on mass transfer coefficients of VOCs was discussed.

Sewage containing volatile contaminants is a potential VOC-source in cities. Thus we tried to evaluate volatilization out of the sewerage system by measurements of contaminants in sewer gas and sewage. Our results from a medium sized town with little industry showed that sewer gas is mainly contaminated with alkanes, small aromatic compounds and chlorinated hydrocarbons. For three chlorinated hydrocarbons (chloroform, trichloroethene, tetrachloroethene) we determined mass transfer coefficients out of sewage and used these data to estimate mass fluxes from sewage and emissions out of the sewerage system for two sewer stretches. Considerable emission of chlorinated hydrocarbons from sewage, i.e. fluxes of some 10 to 100 g per m2·d, occurred only when the contaminant input via sewage was between some g and mg per litre for a single compound. For concentrations that were about 3 orders of magnitude less, emissions were negligible.

The paper deals with the mass transfer in a liquid on a plate with mobile packing. A procedure has been suggested which enables estimation of the mass transfer coefficients from experimental data considering the dispersion flow of the liquid. The results obtained from the desorption of CO2 from water are presented graphically and in the form of empirical equation.

Extended Leveque problem is studied for linear velocity profiles, vx(z) = u + qz. The existing analytic solution is reconsidered and shown to be inapplicable for the accurate calculation of mean mass-transfer coefficients. A numerical solution is reported and its accuracy is checked in detail. Simple but fairly accurate empirical formulas are suggested for the calculating of local and mean mass-transfer coefficients.

Reactive Absorption

This paper is devoted to the development of a new method for estimating mass transfer coefficients and effective area in packed columns in the case of reactive absorption. The method is based on a plug-flow model of reactive absorption of carbon dioxide with sodium hydroxide solution. The parameter estimation problem is solved using an optimization technique. Some mass transfer parameters are found to be correlated. Global sensitivity analysis by Sobol's technique showed that the unit model with the defined objective function is sensitive to the estimated parameter. Case studies of reactive absorption with different packings illustrate application of the proposed method for estimating mass transfer coefficients and effective area from column operation data. The model calculations are compared with experimental data obtained by other authors. The concentration profiles calculated by the unit model with the estimated parameters are shown to match well with experimental profiles from literature. A good agreement between estimated values and experimental data from literature confirms the applicability of this method.
