Simulation of coalescence, break up and mass transfer in bubble columns by using the Conditional Quadrature Method of Moments in OpenFOAM [PDF]
The evaluation of the mass transfer rates and the fluid-dynamics aspects of bubble columns are strongly affected by the intrinsic poly-dispersity of the gas phase, namely the different dispersed bubbles are usually distributed over a certain range of ...

Effect of surface modification on single-walled carbon nanotube retention and transport in saturated and unsaturated porous media [PDF]
This work investigated the effect of different surface modification methods, including oxidization, surfactant coating, and humic acid coating, on single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) stability and their mobility in granular porous media under various ...

Prediction of bubble size in Bubble columns using Artificial Neural Network
In the literature, several correlations have been proposed for bubble size prediction in bubble columns. However these correlations fail to predict bubble diameter over a wide range of conditions. Based on a data bank of around 230 measurements collected

This study aims to contribute to the optimization of bio-methanation in bubble columns, making it a more viable alternative to stirred tank reactors. The primary challenge to be addressed is the enhancement of mass transfer, which strongly depends on ...

Dynamic models for start-up operations of batch distillation columns with experimental validation [PDF]
The simulation of batch distillation columns during start-up operations is a very challenging modelling problem because of the complex dynamic behaviour. Only few rigorous models for distillation columns start-up are available in literature and generally

Bubble Formation Characteristic of Submerged Single-Hole Orifice in Aerosol Suspension
Bubble columns are regarded as an effective containment filtration method. A large amount of radioactive aerosol will be retained in a liquid pool and generate decay heat.

Heat Transfer Between Gas and Liquid in a Bubble Column
Multiphase contactors, e.g. bubble columns, are often used in operations accompanied by heat transfer between the phases. Literature studies have divided heat transfer measurements in two- and three-phase systems into: (i) estimations of bed-to-wall heat

Accuracy of bubble velocity measurement with a four-point optical fibre probe [PDF]
For the operation of high void fraction bubbly flows in bubble\ud columns, insight in primary parameters such as bubble size,\ud shape and velocity as well as gas volume fraction is essential.\ud At high gas volume fractions the flow system becomes\ud ...
