Lateral Edge Effects on the Sherwood Number in Turbulent Flow Over a Flat Plate

Journal of Heat Transfer, 2017
Experimental results for the Sherwood number variation near the lateral edge of the active surface of a smooth, finite-width flat plate in turbulent boundary layer flow are presented. Using naphthalene sublimation, local mass transfer rates are found for two different free stream velocities.

On the relationship between Aris and Sherwood numbers and friction and effectiveness factors

Chemical Engineering Science, 2008
Abstract We present a general solution of the diffusion–reaction problem for linear kinetics and an expression for the effectiveness factor ( η ) in terms of the shape normalized Thiele modulus ( Φ ) for a catalyst particle of arbitrary shape and with an arbitrary activity profile.

Development and validation of an analytical formulation of the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers on a partially wetted absorber tube

Science and Technology for the Built Environment, 2018
With reference to a simplified analytical solution of the governing differential equation for falling film absorption, the corresponding formulation of the average Nusselt and Sherwood numbers obta...

Sherwood number in flow through parallel porous plates (Microchannel) due to pressure and electroosmotic flow

AIChE Journal, 2011
AbstractAn expression for Sherwood number is developed from first principles for combined pressure‐driven and electroosmotic flow in a porous rectangular microchannel. This quantifies the mass transfer of an electrically neutral solute in the microchannel and is useful for designing microfluidic devices and porous media flows.

The effect of Peclet on the Sherwood number in high porosity granular media

2002
The Sherwood number representing the mass transfer coefficient for transport from a moving fluid to a swarm of spherical particles is calculated in the range of high porosities. The mass transport problem is solved both analytically and numerically under the assumption of instantaneous adsorption upon the liquid-solid interface. The velocity components

Measurement of the mass transfer coefficient and sherwood number for carbon spheres burning in a bubbling fluidized bed

Combustion and Flame, 2002
Abstract A freely moving, machined sphere of graphite (or a rounded particle of a coal char) attached to a very thin, flexible thermocouple has been burnt in a bed of silica sand fluidized by air. Simultaneous measurements were made of [CO] and [CO2] in the off-gases, as well as of the temperature of the burning particle.

Experimental investigation of terminal velocity and Sherwood number of rising droplet in an extraction column

Heat and Mass Transfer, 2017
Mass transfer and terminal velocity of toluene drops rising in an extraction column was studied experimentally. The impact of packing was investigated by inserting a structured packing in three different heights of 10, 25 and 40 cm inside the column.

Triphase catalysis: a correlation for Sherwood number using the rotating disk contactor (RDC) developed earlier

Chemical Engineering Science, 2001
Abstract Triphase catalysis (TPC) has the potential for conducting phase-transfer catalyzed reactions in the continuous mode. However, there is so far no industrial acceptance of this possibility since the reaction rates achieved are usually low due to diffusional limitations.

Apparent particle Sherwood numbers in the fluidized bed combustion of biomass and coal chars

1998
Combustion of chars from a biomass fuel and from a bituminous coal has been carried out in a laboratory scale fluidized bed reactor with the aim of evaluating apparent particle Sherwood numbers. Comparison of the carbon conversion rate of the biomass with that of the bituminous coal indicated that extensive attrition of the biomass char particles and ...
