GasLiquidMassTransfer

Calculates overall liquid mass transfer coefficient [m/s].

Description

This object implements two models for estimating the mass transfer coefficient of a flowing system. The first model is the one described by C.R. Wilke, P. Chang, Correlation of diffusion coefficients in dilute solutions'', AICHE J., 1955, 1(2) 264-270.

The second model is the famous Stokes-Einstein relationship, which provides the diffusion of a spherical partical through a liquid with a low Reynolds number. The relationship is as follows:

Here, is the diffusivity being calculated, is the Boltzmann constant, is the temperature of the fluid, is the dynamic viscosity, and is the particle radius.
