Question

Water at 25 °C is flowing at a velocity of 0.45 m/s in a tube having a mass transfer
area (Black region in the figure) of 4.42.10-5 m2
. The tube is 1.2 m long with the walls coated
with formic acid. The solubility of formic acid in water is 100000 mg/L. Viscosity of water is
8.71 x 10-4 Pa.s and the density of water is 996 kg/m3
. Assuming that the velocity profile is fully
developed.
a. Determine the flow type.
b. Calculate the convective mass-transfer coefficient k'c.
c. Calculate the flux of NA.
