Abstract
The present state of hydrodynamics and mass transfer studies in segmented gas-liquid flow in microchannels has been analyzed. It has been shown that such parameters as gas bubble velocity, gas hold-up, relative gas bubble length, pressure drop, mass transfer coefficients from gas bubbles to liquid slugs and to liquid film, as well as mass transfer coefficient from liquid to channel wall can be satisfactorily predicted. Nevertheless, some correlations were obtained under definite conditions and should be summarized. The purpose of further research is to develop reliable methods for calculation of mass transfer coefficients as functions of channel geometry, phase properties, and phase velocities in mini- and microchannels.
