The wetted-wire packing, mainly consisting of a bundle of vertical parallel wires, is a promising concept for the use in separation columns. To investigate the multiphase flow inside the packing in detail and to estimate the performance of the packing, experiments on liquid films on a single vertical wire in a counter current gas flow were carried out. To get information about the interfacial area, an optical measurement of the film thickness was carried out with a digital high speed camera and image recognition tools. By measuring the evaporation of water and aqueous polyvinylpyrrolidone solutions into air, the gas-side mass transfer was determined. The liquid-side mass transfer was examined by measuring the desorption of CO2 from water into air. The results show that the mass transfer coefficients are comparable to those appearing in common structured packings. When assuming a sufficiently high wire packing density, a specific interfacial area similar to corrugated sheet structured packings can be reached. Previous studies predicted a low pressure drop per packing height and extended capacity limits compared to common packings. In consideration of these results, the wetted wire packing therefore is shown to be suitable especially for absorption processes where a low pressure drop is favourable. 相似文献

Modelling of gas/vapour–liquid separation processes usually requires experimentally determined parameters, e.g., mass transfer coefficients. This results in expensive experimental work, especially for new types of column internals. A novel modelling approach based on hydrodynamic analogies (HA) has recently been developed for distillation units equipped with structured corrugated sheet packings. The HA model takes the packing geometry directly into account whereas the experimental determination of mass transfer coefficients is not required.In this work, the HA approach is extended to cover heterogeneously catalysed reactive stripping processes. Experimental investigations are performed with a test system, esterification of hexanoic acid and 1-octanol, using different types of catalytically coated supports as column internals (one corrugated sheet packing and three film-flow monoliths with different channel geometries). Simulation results obtained with the extended HA model are in a good agreement with experimental values. 相似文献

This paper studies the mass transfer performance of structured packings in the absorption of CO2 from air with aqueous NaOH solution. The Eight structured packings tested are sheet metal ones with corrugations of different geometry parameters. Effective mass transfer area and overall gas phase mass transfer coefficient have been measured in an absorption column of 200 mm diameter under the conditions of gas F-factor in 0.38–1.52 Pa0.5 and aqueous NaOH solution concentration of 0.10–0.15 kmol·m?3. The effects of gas/liquid phase flow rates and packing geometry parameters are also investigated. The results show that the effective mass transfer area changes not only with packing geometry parameters and liquid load, but also with gas F-factor. A new effective mass transfer area correlation on the gas F-factor and the liquid load was proposed, which is found to fit experiment data very well. 相似文献

Visualization of local mass transfer coefficients over the dry surface of corrugated‐sheet structured packing is essential for optimizing the existing geometry of structured packing and for improving mass transfer efficiency to develop new structured packing. The local flow patterns between packing sheets and the gas‐phase mass transfer coefficient at each point over the surface are illustrated by employing a wall‐surface reaction model. Different turbulence models are utilized, i.e., a standard κ‐? model and three different low‐Re‐κ‐? models. The numerical calculation results with the Lam‐Bremhorst low‐Re‐κ‐? turbulence model is found to agree well with experimental data. There are three similar regions with enhanced mass transfer efficiency in each mass transfer unit cell of structured packing. 相似文献

An experimental investigation was carried out to examine the fluid dynamic and mass transfer behavior of structured packing, with the liquid and gas phase flowing co‐currently downwards in the column. Liquid to packing mass transfer coefficients for three positions within the pack were measured by an electrochemical method, varying both the liquid and gas loads as well as the physical properties of the liquid phase. Due to the high void fraction of structured packing, much higher liquid flow rates can be used than in traditional particle trickle‐beds. It was found that in the range studied, the gas superficial velocity has no effect on the mass transfer rate and thus, a general mass transfer correlation in terms of liquid Reynolds number only, was developed. Wetted areas and the radial distribution of liquid through the packing element were determined by a colorimetric method. Within the range of liquid flow rates investigated, complete wetting is not achieved, even with the low viscosity solutions. The measured ratios of hydraulic to geometric area, agree reasonably well with values predicted by existing relationships. 相似文献

This paper describes a model for gas–liquid mass transfer through thin liquid films present on structured packings for gas–liquid operations under dispersed gas flow regime. The model has been derived for two cases: the absorption (or desorption) of a gaseous component into the liquid film and the transfer of the gaseous component through the liquid film to the packing surface where an infinitely fast reaction takes place. These cases have been solved for three bubble geometries: rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical. For Fourier numbers below 0.3, the model corresponds to Higbie’s penetration theory for both cases. The Sherwood numbers for cylindrical and spherical bubbles are 20% and 35% higher, respectively, than for rectangular bubbles. In case of absorption and Fourier numbers exceeding 3, the effect of bubble geometry becomes more pronounced. The Sherwood numbers for cylindrical and spherical bubbles now are 55% and 100% higher, respectively, than for rectangular bubbles. In case of an infinitely fast reaction at the packing surface, the Sherwood number corresponds to Whitman’s film theory (Sh=1) for all bubble geometries. In this paper also practical approximations to the derived Sherwood numbers are presented. The approximations for both cases and all bubble geometries describe all the model data within an error of 4%. The application of the model has been demonstrated for three examples: (1) gas–liquid mass transfer for a structured packing; (2) gas–liquid mass transfer in a microchannel operated with annular flow; (3) gas–liquid mass transfer in a microchannel with Taylor flow. 相似文献

The gas‐liquid mass transfer coefficients (MTCs) of a trickle bed reactor used for the study of benzene hydrogenation were investigated. The Ni/Al2O3 catalyst bed was diluted with a coarse‐grained inert carborundum (SiC) particle catalyst. Gas‐liquid mass transfer coefficients were estimated by using a heterogeneous model for reactor simulation, incorporating reaction kinetics, vapor‐liquid equilibrium, and catalyst particle internal mass transfer apart from gas‐liquid interface mass transfer. The effects of liquid axial dispersion and the catalyst wetting efficiency are shown to be negligible. Partial external mass transfer coefficients are correlated with gas superficial velocity, and comparison between them and those obtained from experiments conducted on a bed diluted with fine particles is also presented. On both sides of the gas‐liquid interface the hydrogen mass transfer coefficient is higher than the corresponding benzene one and both increase significantly with gas velocity. The gas‐side mass transfer limitations appear to be higher in the case of dilution with fine particles. On the liquid side, the mass transfer resistances are higher in the case of dilution with coarse inerts for gas velocities up to 3 · 10–2 cm/sec, while for higher gas velocities this was inversed and higher mass transfer limitations were obtained for the beds diluted with fine inerts. 相似文献

Structured packing is a good candidate for CO2 capture process because of its higher mass transfer efficiency and lower pressure drop.Now,the challenging problem of CO2 capture and storage demands more and more efficiency equipment.The aim of the present study is to investigate the liquid film characteristics under counter current gas phase and throw some insight into the enhancing mechanism of mass transfer performance in structured packing.A high speed digital camera,non-intrusive measurement technique,was used.Water and air were working fluids.Experiments were carried out for different gas/liquid flow rates and different inclination angles.The time-average and instantaneous film widths for each set of flow parameters were calculated.It is shown that the effects of gas phase could be neglected for lower flow rate,and then,become more pronounced at higher flow rate.According to instantaneous film width,three different stages can be distinguished.One is the constant width of liquid film.The second is the slight decrease of film width and the smooth surface.This kind of character will lead to less interfacial area and deteriorate the packing mass transfer performance.For the third stage,the variation of film width shows clearly chaotic behavior.The prediction model was also developed in present work.The predicted and experimental results are in good agreement. 相似文献

Electrochemical gas absorption or biotechnical purification processes using structured packing as electrode or as biological support, respectively, may operate in bubble columns in presence of suspended solids. In both systems the knowledge of mass transfer rates from the liquid to the packing is important for the design of equipment. In the present investigation, the fluid dynamic behavior of a simple bubble column and a bubble column containing small size particles, both in presence of structured packing, was studied. Furthermore, mass transfer coefficients between the liquid and the structured packing were obtained by the electrochemical method. The influence of physical properties of the liquid phase, gas flow rate, kind and concentration of the suspended particles on both gas holdup and mass transfer was investigated. Correlations of the experimental data of mass transfer using dimensionless groups were derived and compared to previous correlations. Similarity with a heat transfer expression already used in two-phase systems was found. 相似文献

A CFD model of the two‐phase countercurrent flow in the geometry of the plate‐type structured packing Mellapak 250.Y was built, tested and verified. The model was applied to determine the effect of liquid and gas flow rates and physicochemical properties of the flowing liquids on the interfacial area formed on structured packing. The CFD model allowed us to determine the minimum liquid flow rate at which an unbroken liquid film was observed on the packing surface. The simulations confirmed that with an increase of the wetting rate the surface of the packing covered with a liquid film increased until the surface was totally covered up, while further slight changes of an interfacial area were the result of wave formation. The effect of gas load (F factor) on the film surface was in the range of a calculation error. Results of the CFD simulation allow us to predict the stages of film formation during liquid flow, to follow local velocity oscillations, film thickness and velocity profiles of phases. 相似文献

The gas side controlled mass transfer coefficient of an easy to make packing, with stamped horizontal lamellae, designed for operating at extremely low liquid superficial velocity, between 0.04 and 1 m3/m2 h is investigated. The absorption of SO2 in sodium hydroxide water solution is used as a model process. Based on the obtained experimental data, an equation for calculating the gas side controlled mass transfer coefficient, with deviation of ±8% is presented.The comparison between the new packing and different highly effective packings shows that the new one has lower pressure drop at the same specific area and mass transfer coefficient, respectively higher mass transfer coefficient at the same pressure drop and specific surface.Of all compared highly effective packings, only the crossed strips packing, quite difficult to produce, has close, yet higher, pressure drop at similar specific surface area and volumetric mass transfer coefficient. 相似文献

For the in‐situ measurement of the mass transfer of a gas phase into a liquid film on a packing using X‐ray computed tomography, a substance combination is needed. The thickness of the liquid film was measured using computed tomography, to ensure that enough pixels in the film are available for the mass transfer experiments. In order to decide if the substance combination is distinguishable in the CT images, the X‐ray activity of gases and of dissolved gas in the liquid phase was investigated. For the determination of the maximum solubility the quantum chemical model COSMO‐RS was used to simulate the vapor‐liquid equilibria. 相似文献

In this work, a pellet string reactor was characterized with respect to hydrodynamics and mass transfer. The catalyst packing consists of a cylindrical channel with a diameter of 1.41 mm, which was filled with spherical catalyst particles, having an outer diameter of 0.8 mm. Under reaction conditions (liquid phase hydrogenation of α‐methylstyrene) overall (gas‐liquid‐solid) volumetric mass transfer coefficients for hydrogen between 0.8 and 5.5 s–1 were computed. Due to high mass transfer rates and simple reactor geometry, pellet string reactors can be applied in industry as highly efficient reaction units. 相似文献

In this study, the mass transfer efficiencies of a novel horizontal rotating packed (h‐RPB) bed and the conventional disc‐type rotating biological contactor (RBC) were studied at four speeds and seven submergences. Pall rings of two different sizes (25, 38 mm), superintalox saddles and a wiremesh spiral bundle were used as packings in the h‐RPB. Volumetric gas–liquid mass transfer coefficients were determined by unsteady state absorption of atmospheric oxygen in de‐aerated water. Power consumption per unit liquid volume has been found for all geometries tested. The oxygen transfer efficiency values for the h‐RPB were found to be 2–5 kg kWh?1 and for the disc RBC were found to be 1–2 kg kWh?1. The performance of the h‐RPB was also compared with other gas–liquid contactors such as surface aerators. The study proves that the h‐RPB is a energy efficient alternative to conventional contactors.

A comparison of the values of interfacial area in cocurrent downward flow of gas and liquid with those obtained in upward flow revealed very little difference.Volumetric as well as true liquid side mass transfer coefficients in downflow were found to be several times lower than in upflow. Only in the smallest 10 mm tube a dependence of the mass transfer coefficient on the gas flow rate could be detected, no effect of the gas velocity was observed in the 15 and 20 mm tubes. A correlation for the liquid side mass transfer coefficient was obtained in terms of the Reynolds number of the film.The volumetric gas side mass transfer coefficient in upflow was generally independent on the liquid flow rate, except at high gas velocities in the two smaller tubes. Correlations were obtained for the volumetric mass transfer coefficient in terms of the specific rate of energy dissipation, and of the true mass transfer coefficient in terms of dimensionless groups. Much lower values were obtained for the gas side mass transfer coefficient in downflow. Only the data for the 10 mm tube could be correlated with some success by the formulas proposed for upflow. 相似文献
