Evaluation of convective mass transfer coefficient during drying of jaggery

In this paper an attempt is made to evaluate the convective mass transfer coefficient during drying of jaggery in a controlled environment. In this method, different masses of jaggery were used. The jaggery was dried in the roof type even span greenhouse with a floor area of 1.2x0.8 m in natural and forced convection mode at atmospheric pressure till it attained almost no variation in mass. The...

Mathematical model for mass transfer coefficient determination in dissolution process

Mathematical models play an essential role in simulation of dynamic processes as they provide insights into the description and behaviour of real systems. Models of chemical processes are derived from laws of conservation, thermodynamic, and control design. In the present paper, we study the modelling of dissolution process determining the quasi steady state material balance for velocity profil...

Saponification reaction system: a detailed mass transfer coefficient determination.

The saponification of an aromatic ester with an aqueous sodium hydroxide was studied within a heterogeneous reaction medium in order to determine the overall kinetics of the selected system. The extended thermo-kinetic model was developed compared to the previously used simple one. The reaction rate within a heterogeneous liquid-liquid system incorporates a chemical kinetics term as well as mas...
