AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF MASS TRANSFER IN PACKED BEDS AS AN ANALOG TO CONVECTIVE HEAT TRANSFER
要約
An experimental study of mass transfer from a randomly packed bed of paradichlorobenzene spheres is presented. In the study, both local and overall bed mass transfer rates were determined. The local mass transfer rates were obtained directly from flagged particles located at various points throughout the bed. Utilizing the local values for mass transfer coefficients and integrating across the bed depth gave excellent agreement with bulk mass losses. Correlations of the data are presented and recommendations for application to heat transfer are given.
