Abstract: | Sherwood number relations for the prediction of the mass transfer coefficient for developing concentration boundary layer have been obtained for turbulent flow regime from first principles. The common flow modules, namely, rectangular channel, tubular and radial cross flow are considered. The relationships developed include the effect of suction through the membrane. Relevant relations for the estimation of mass transfer coefficient for cross flow ultrafiltration are formulated. The proposed Sherwood relations are used in conjunction with the osmotic pressure model to predict the permeate flux in osmotic pressure governed ultrafiltration. The simulated results are compared with the experimental data obtained from the literature. A detailed parametric study has been performed to observe the effects of the operating conditions on the filtration performance in terms of the permeate quantity and quality. |
