Abstract: | A novel design of a honeycomb packing with turbulizers in the region of the boundary layer (Turbo-Pack) has been designed and investigated. The presence of turbulizers is shown to decrease the pressure drop per mass transfer unit in cases of both gas-film and liquid-film controlled mass transfer. A comparison of the best packings known so far from the literature shows that, regarding such an important parameter as pressure drop per mass transfer unit, the novel packing has significant advantages. On the basis of experimental data obtained by studying 11 different packing designs in liquids of various viscosity, equations for determining the performance characteristics of the novel packing are obtained. In the first part of this work, the data on packing design, pressure drop and loading point are presented. |
