Influence of the Marangoni Effect on Mass Transfer in Inclined Falling Films

The Marangoni effect on the mass transfer coefficient of falling films was investigated on inclined stainless‐steel plates to elucidate the influence on the mass transfer performance of structured packing surfaces. Desorption of ethanol from water generated the Marangoni effect in the liquid phase while the process of oxygen desorption from water was proceeded. The enhanced liquid phase mass transfer by the Marangoni effect was found to be related to the ethanol concentration in the liquid, inclination of the plate, and liquid flow condition. A generalized correlation was proposed to predict the effective enhancement factor of the system incorporated with the Marangoni effect.

Gas holdup and mass transfer in solid suspended bubble columns in presence of structured packings

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.     

Gas-liquid dispersions in structured packing with high-viscosity liquids

Gas holdup in bubble columns containing structured packing was determined for varying liquid phase viscosity and different construction materials of the packing. Three columns, containing packing made from smooth nickel plate, perforated nickel plate and plastic sheets, respectively, were tested. The gas holdup in a column with no internals was also measured for comparison purposes. The effect of viscosity on gas holdup was studied by using water, aqueous glycerol and aqueous CMC solutions as the liquid phase; some of the solutions showed non-Newtonian behavior.The experimental results of gas void fraction were correlated in terms of superficial gas velocity and liquid viscosity through a simple homographic expression. The geometric characteristics of the structured packings were found to influence gas holdup, thus yielding slightly different equations for each structured packing. This effect is discussed in detail. Nevertheless, for engineering purposes a single equation representing all the data is also proposed, which permits the prediction of gas holdup in structured packing with sufficient accuracy.     

Marangoni效应对填料塔精馏传质过程的影响

受热降膜Marangoni效应临界状态表征

采用红外热成像技术,研究了水和Na2SO4水溶液受热降膜的Marangoni效应及对降膜流动的影响。发现在降膜的流向和径向都存在热Marangoni效应,但Marangoni数却不能较好地表征Marangoni效应对液膜流动的影响程度。因而引入Marangoni效应影响因子ε。结果表明,ε能较好地表征Marangoni效应对液膜流动的影响程度,且不同溶液受热降膜存在一个近似相同的临界值(εLc)。当εLεLc,降膜流向热Marangoni效应将引起降膜明显的扰动。根据εLc值,可获得临界Marangoni数MaTc,L。     

规整填料表面液体分布的计算流体力学

采用计算流体力学(computational fluid dynamics,CFD)中的VOF方法对规整填料表面液相分布进行了三维建模和仿真,实现规整填料内液相分布的可视化并得到了液膜厚度和有效相界面积比等相关定量信息。通过分析比较不同物系的数值模拟结果,发现液体的表面张力和黏度都对填料表面上液体分布有影响。表面张力越小,液相在填料片上分布越均匀,有效相界面积比越大,液膜厚度越小;黏度增加,有效相界面积比和液膜厚度也随之增加。较之于黏度对液相分布的影响程度,表面张力的影响程度更大,为主要影响因素。本文还提出一个预测有效相界面积比的新公式,并将数值模拟结果与已有文献进行对比,吻合性较好。     

两液层体系传质引发的Marangoni效应的数值模拟

The Marangoni effect induced by mass transfer at the interface between two immiscible liquids displays important influence on laboratory and industrial operation of solvent extraction. A systematic numerical study of the two-dimensional Marangoni effect in a two liquid layer system was conducted. The linear relationship of the inter- facial tension versus the solute concentration was incorporated into a mathematical model accounting for liquid flow and mass transfer in both phases. The typical cases analyzed by Sternling ＆ Scriven （AIChE J., 1959） using the linear instability theory were simulated bv the finite difference method and good agreement between the theory and the numerical simulation was observed. The simulation suggests that the Marangoni convection needs certain time to develop sufficiently in strength and scale to enhance the interphase mass transfer, the Marangoni effect is dynamic and transient, and remains at some stabilized level as long as the mass transfer driving force is kept con- stant. When certain level of shear is imposed at the interface as in most cases of practical significance, the Maran- goni effect is suppressed slightly but progressively as the shear is increased gradually. The present two-dimensional simulation of the Marangoni effect provides some insight into the underlying mechanism and also the basis for further theoretical study of the three-dimensional Marangoni effect in the real world and in chemical engineering applications.     

Influence of structured packing on gas holdup in a three-phase bubble column

In this work, the influence of structured packing on gas holdup in gas-liquid-solid dispersions has been studied. The experiments were carried out in an empty column and in column containing structured packing operating under identical conditions. Glass beads and silicon carbide particles were used as the solid material and the volumetric fraction of solids was varied from 0% to around 10%. The liquid viscosity was strongly modified using water, CMC solution and glycerol. The experimental results obtained with both columns were compared with previous results obtained in two-phase bubble columns. The influence of structured packing on the total gas holdup for different superficial gas velocities was found to be similar with and without suspended solids. Therefore, the results obtained in this work were analysed on the basis of correlations derived earlier for gas-liquid dispersions. Excepting the results obtained with glycerol, these correlations can predict the gas holdup of three-phase bubble columns with reasonable accuracy.
