A unique approach to simulate mass transfer across the moving droplet where mass transport equations and governing equations of the levels set method are solved separately is proposed in this work. Mass transfer coefficients of the chemical species can be computed by equating the diffusive flux and the mass transfer flux at the interface, which are found to be of the same order of magnitude as ...

Leather manufacturing involves a crucial energy-intensive drying stage in the finishing process to remove its residual moisture. Determining drying characteristics of leather is vitally important so as to optimize the drying stage. This paper describes an analytical way for determination of the drying characteristics of leather. The model presented, is based on fundamental heat and mass tra...

This paper presents numerical simulations of two-phase flow with highdensity ratio, taking into account mass transport of a soluble component and its interfacial mass transfer. The mathematical model and the numerical method allow for different solubility of the species in the respective fluid phases, while volume changes due to mass transfer are neglected. The discontinuous changes in species ...

it is several decades that the application of membrane processes for gas separation has become a great concern within industries. among them, the polymeric membranes of different structures have played the most important role. such application has been widely extended to gas separation and due to the necessity of both; prediction of the behavior of these processes and recognition of the effecti...

Abstract The present work extends the Integral Boundary Layer (IBL) Method to centrifugal force driven thin film flow with mass transfer. proposed hybrid approach combines IBL based solution of field a Finite Difference transport equation, avoiding any concentration profile assumptions and restrictions on surface chemistry. In comparison against results from highly resolved Computational Fluid ...

An experimental investigation is conducted to determine the effect of repeated-plate blockages of variable streamwise spacing on heat transfer characteristics of turbulent flow in rectangular ducts. The plates are attached to the upper and lower walls in a staggered arrangement. The experiments are carried out by mass transfer and the analogy between heat and mass transfer provides the necessar...

The current emphasis on increasing aeronautical efficiency is leading the way to a new class of lighter more flexible airplane materials and structures, which unfortunately can result in aeroelastic instabilities. To effectively control the wings deformation and shape, appropriate modeling is necessary. Wings are often modeled as cantilever beams using finite element analysis. The drawback of t...
