Eddy diffusion calculation
A stream of air at 100 kPa and 300 K is flowing on the top surface of a thin flat sheet of solid naphthalene of
length 0.2 m with a velocity of 20 m/sec. The other data are:
Mass diffusivity of naphthalene vapor in air = 6*106 m²/sec
Kinematic viscosity of air= 1.5 * 10-³ m²/sec
Concentration of naphthalene at the air-solid naphthalene interface = 1*105 kmol/m³
Sh = 0.664 Re/Sc¹/3 where Re₁ = lvp
μ
Calculate:
(a) The overage mass transfer coefficient over the flat plate
(b) The rate of loss of naphthalene from the surface per unit width
