Mass Transfer Correlation Development in Circular Conduit with the Presence of Entry Region Spiral Tape Wound on Rod as Turbulence Promoter in Homogeneous Flow

Abstract

In this study, an experimental investigation has been carried out to develop a model for mass transfer correlation. As a part of that experimental data obtained in terms of limiting current values and the data was measured for various flow rates using spiral tape wound on a rod promoters of varying geometric parameters. The geometric parameters are height (H), width (W) and the pitch (P). The experiment carried out for a total of 48 promoters and the limiting current data obtained for 4800 local limiting currents and 240 pressure drop measurements. The spiral tape wound of rod with geometric parameters 0.07 m height, 0.04 m width and 0.04 m pitch given maximum augmentation of 15 fold compared to the empty column without promoter.
