1. Demonstrating the Effect

of Interphase Mass Transfer in a Transparent Fluidized Bed

Saayman, Jean; Nicol, Willie
2011-01-01
A demonstration experiment is described that employs the
ozone decomposition reaction at ambient conditions on Fe2O3
impregnated Fluidized Catalytic Cracking (FCC) catalyst. Using
a two-dimensional see-through column the importance
of interphase mass transfer is clearly illustrated by the
significant difference in ozone conversion between the…
2. Effect of interaction between inclusions in a gas-
liquid mixture on interphase heat and mass transfer

The effect of interaction between inclusions in a gas-liquid
mixture on interphase heat and mass transfer is analyzed. It is
taken into account that inclusions (bubbles or drops) are not in
a pure carrier phase, but in a disperse medium, mean
properties of which are determined by the presence of other
inclusions in it and by a temperature field around them. The
consideration is carried out in the framework of two model of
monodisperse mixture, i.e. that with a chaotic distribution of
inclusions, and that with a regular distribution, when the
distance between centers of inclusions is fixed. The correlation
functions method is shown to be effective for the both models.
Mean temperature fields around inclusions are determined
along with the intensity of interphase heat and mass transfer.
The dependences obtained are in a satisfactory agreement with
experimental data. The dependence of interphase heat
and mass transfer on the structure of disperse mixture is
analyzed
3. Accounting for the Effect of Noncondensing Gases
on Interphasic Heat and Mass Transfer in the Two-Fluid Model
Used in the KORSAR Code

A model is presented of the interphasic heat
and mass transfer in the presence of noncondensable gases for
the KORSAR/GP design code. This code was developed by
FGUP NITI and the special design bureau OKB Gidropress. It
was certified by Rostekhnadzor in 2009 for numerical
substantiation of the safety of reactor installations with VVER
reactors. The model is based on the assumption that there are
three types of interphasic heat and mass transfer of the vapor
component: vapor condensation or evaporation on
the interphase under any thermodynamic conditions of the
phases, pool boiling of the liquid superheated above the
saturation temperature at the total pressure, and spontaneous
condensation in the volume of gas phase supercooled below
the saturation temperature at the vapor partial pressure.
Condensation and evaporation on the interphase continuously
occur in a two-phase flow and control the time response of
the interphase heat and mass transfer. Boiling and
spontaneous condensation take place only at the metastable
condition of the phases and run at a quite high speed. The
procedure used for calculating condensation and evaporation
on the interphase accounts for the combined diffusion and
thermal resistance of mass transfer in all regimes of the two-
phase flow. The proposed approach accounts for, in a natural
manner, a decrease in the rate of steam condensation (or
generation) in the presence of noncondensing components in
the gas phase due to a decrease (or increase) in
the interphase temperature relative to the saturation
temperature at the vapor partial pressure. The model of
the interphase heat transfer also accounts for the processes of
dissolution or release of noncondensing components in or from
the liquid. The gas concentration at the interphase and on the
saturation curve is calculated by the Henry law.
The mass transfer coefficient in gas dissolution is based on the
heat and mass transfer analogy. Results are presented of the
verification of the

The rate constants for the interphase transfer of uranium
between 3.5 M HNO 3 and tributyl phosphate (TBP) - normal
hydrocarbon diluent solutions have been measured using the
single drop method, Lewis cell method, and a Kenics mixer -
centrifugal separator. Rate constants obtained by all methods
were the same within experimental error. The variables studied
that affect the rate constants include the TBP concentration, the
acidity and total neutral nitrate concentrations of the aqueous
phase, and temperature. Results of these tests indicate that the
rate controlling mechanism is chemical reaction at the interface

Graphical abstract: Glucose oxidase (GOD) and cytochrome c
(Cyt c) were co-entrapped in the poly(diallyldimethylammonium
chloride)–graphene nanosheets–gold nanoparticles
(PDDA–Gp–AuNPs) nanocomposites modified glassy
carbon electrode. Electron transfer and electrocatalysis of the
novel bi-protein bio-interphase were investigated. The bio-
interphase developed here not only successfully achieved DET
of GOD, but also showed great potential for the fabrication of
novel glucose biosensors with linear response up to 18 mM.
Highlights: â–º A bio-interphase composed of cytochrome c and
glucose oxidase was developed. â–º The electron transfer in
the bio-interphase was investigated. â–º Electrocatalytic
performances of bio-interphase were explored. â–º The bio-
interphase exhibited good electrocatalytic response glucose. -
Abstract: Glucose oxidase (GOD) and cytochrome c (Cyt c)
were co-entrapped in the poly(diallyldimethylammonium
chloride)–graphene nanosheets–gold nanoparticles
(PDDA–Gp–AuNPs) hybrid nanocomposites modified
glassy carbon electrode to prepare a novel bi-protein bio-
interphase. Electron transfer and electrocatalysis of the bi-
protein bio-interphase were investigated in detail. The results
showed that the PDDA–Gp–AuNPs nanocomposites
accelerated the electron transfer between proteins and
electrode. The bi-protein exhibited effective direct
electron transfer (DET) reaction with an apparent rate constant
(k s ) of 2.36 s −1 . The optimal molar ratio and total amount of
Cyt c and GOD in the bio-interphase for DET of GOD was
estimated to be about 3:1 and 1.40 nmol, respectively. The bi-
protein bio-interphase could be used to detect glucose based
on the consumption of O 2 with the oxidation of glucose
catalyzed by GOD. The resulted biosensor exhibits wide linear
range from 2.0 to 18.0 mM. Thus, this study not only
successfully achieved DET of GOD, but also constructed a
novel biosensor for glucose detection

Vrentas, James S
2013-01-01
The book first covers the five elements necessary to formulate
and solve mass transfer problems, that is, conservation laws
and field equations, boundary conditions, constitutive
equations, parameters in constitutive equations, and
mathematical methods that can be used to solve the partial
differential equations commonly encountered
in mass transfer problems. Jump balances, Green’s
function solution methods, and the free-volume theory for the
prediction of self-diffusion coefficients for polymer–solvent
systems are among the topics covered. The authors then use
those elements to analyze a wide variety
of mass transfer problems, including bubble dissolution,
polymer sorption and desorption, dispersion, impurity migration
in plastic containers, and utilization of polymers in drug delivery.
The text offers detailed solutions, along with some theoretical
aspects, for numerous processes including viscoelastic
diffusion, moving boundary problems, diffusion and reaction,
membrane transport, wave behavior, sedime...
7. Heat and mass transfer
CERN Document Server
Karwa, Rajendra
2017-01-01
This textbook presents the classical treatment of the problems
of heat transfer in an exhaustive manner with due emphasis on
understanding of the physics of the problems. This emphasis is
especially visible in the chapters on convective heat transfer.
Emphasis is laid on the solution of steady and unsteady two-
dimensional heat conduction problems. Another special feature
of the book is a chapter on introduction to design of heat
exchangers and their illustrative design problems. A simple and
understandable treatment of gaseous radiation has been
presented. A special chapter on flat plate solar air heater has
been incorporated that covers thermo-hydraulic modeling and
simulation. The chapter on mass transfer has been written
looking specifically at the needs of the students of mechanical
engineering. The book includes a large number and variety of
solved problems with supporting line diagrams. The author has
avoided duplicating similar problems, while incorporating more
application-based examples. All the end-...
