Question

Does the rate-based model account for the bulk-flow effect in mass transfer?

Expert Solution

Step 1

It is to be stated whether the bulk flow effect are present in rate based model or not.

Step 2

The rate based model consists of various equations of mass transfer which are derived from the diffusive as well as the bulk flow effects in the mass transfer.

The effects of these are based on the driving force of mass transfer, mass transfer coefficients and several other effects.

These effects are profound in the different type of mass transfer equipment like trays, plates, etc.
