Question
Q3)
A wetted wall column of inside diameter (2 in) contains air and CO2 flowing at 3 ft/s.
At a certain point in the column, the CO2 concentration in air is found to be 0.1l mol fraction.
At the same point, the concentration of CO2 in the water at the water – air
-
interface is estimated to be 0.005 mole fraction. The column operates at 10 atm and 25 °C.
Considering a mass transfer through a stagnant layer (transfer of CO2 from air
to water only), calculate the mass transfer coefficient and the mass flux at the point of
interest, given that:
The diffusivity of CO2 in air at 25 °C and 1 atm = 0.164 cm²/s
The density of air at STP = 0.0808 lbm/ft³
The viscosity of air at 25 °C and 10 atm = 0.018×10³ kg/m.s
