Abstract: | A model is developed for the analysis of mass transfer during isothermal absorption in a vertical gas-liquid slug flow at large Reynolds numbers with liquid plugs containing small bubbles. Simple formulas for mass flux from the N-th unit cell of gas-liquid slug flow and for total mass flux from N unit cells are derived. In the limiting case the derived formulas for mass transfer during gas absorption in a slug flow with liquid plugs containing small bubbles recover the derived expressions for mass transfer in slug flow without small bubbles in the liquid plugs. Using the developed model recommendations concerning the design of the absorber operating in a slug flow regime are suggested. Received on 28 July 1997 |
