The paper deals with the mass transfer in a liquid on a plate with mobile packing. A procedure has been suggested which enables estimation of the mass transfer coefficients from experimental data considering the dispersion flow of the liquid. The results obtained from the desorption of CO2 from water are presented graphically and in the form of empirical equation.

A new model is developed to predict laterally-averaged film cooling. At the injection location, the near-hole region is leapt over and the injectant is distributed according to an existing jet in cross flow model and experimental data. The subsequent dispersion of the injectant is simulated to reflect the augmented mixing and the 3-dimensionality of the flow field. The new model is calibrated to predict effectiveness and heat transfer using the experimental data bases of Schmidt et al. (1994), Sen et al. (1994), Kohli et al. (1994), and Sinha et al. (1991). The geometries include injection angles of 35° and 55° with compound angles of 0° and 60° and hole spacings of 3 and 6 diameters. The new model yields improved effectiveness predictions over previous 2-D models.

Seasonal evolution of the subglacial drainage system in the lower ablation area of the Hailuogou glacier ice tongue were revealed by repeated dye tracer (Rhodamine WT) experiments during the 2009 ablation season. Between April and October, 18 dye tracer experiments were conducted by injecting the tracer at one location of the lower ablation area of the Hailuogou Glacier to diagnose the seasonal variation of the subglacial drainage system of this section of glacier ice tongue. Using a simple advection-dispersion model (ADM), the flow velocity, hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient, and degree of tracer spreading were deduced. Tracer transit velocity through the tested subglacial channel varied from 0.148 to 0.555 m s−1 during the 2009 ablation season. Dispersivity showed a relatively high value than that found at other glaciers, which varied between 27.05 and 287.49 m2 s−1. Seasonal changes of these indexes indicated that the subglacial drainage system of the lower ablation area of the Hailougou Glacier is a relatively stable existing system in the case of its longitudinal shape, whereas its hydraulic efficiency is low in the early and late ablation seasons and high during the middle of summer due to subglacial channel expansion.

This paper describes a mathematical model for the dissolved oxygen distribution in the plane of a facultative pond with a certain depth. The purpose of this paper is to determine the variation of dissolved oxygen concentration in facultative ponds. The 3-dimensional advection-diffusion equation is solved using the finite difference method Forward Time Central Space (FTCS). Numerical results show that the aerator greatly affects the occurrence of oxygen concentration variations in the facultative pond in the certain depth. The concentration of dissolved oxygen decreases as the depth of the pond increases.
