Abstract

Abstract Mass transfer coefficients are measured for aqueous solutions of carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) flowing past single immersed spherical and nonspherical particles of benzoic acid. The test particles used are 1.265–3.05 cm diameter spheres and 0.5388–1.1431 cm diameter cylindrical pellets, and the fluids used are demineralized water and 1% and 3% aqueous CMC solutions. The results obtained are analyzed and discussed using Acrivos and effective viscosity approaches, and empirical correlations for predicting heat and mass transfer coefficient are also proposed.
