Heat and Mass Transfer Characteristics and Energy Characteristics of the Packing of Column Apparatuses

Comparative characteristics of different packed contact devices are determined. Computational data on the energy complex for estimating the energy-efficiency of irregular and regular heat and mass-transfer packing are presented. Calculation of the heat and mass-transfer coefficients is performed using the equations of a mathematical model for corresponding designs of regular and irregular types packing. Both empirical expressions and experimental data are used in calculating the hydraulic resistance. Comparative characteristics of mass-transfer columns with different types of packing are presented and more efficient designs of packing are created.
