Expression have been derived in the paper for all four possible transfer functions between the inlet and the outlet gas and liquid steams under the counter-current absorption of a poorly soluble gas in a packed bed column. The transfer functions have been derived for the axially dispersed model with stagnant zone in the liquid phase and the axially dispersed model for the gas phase with interfacial transport of a gaseous component (PDE - AD). calculations with practical values of parameters suggest that only two of these transfer functions are applicable for experimental data evaluation.

Gas phase back mixing has been measured in a column packed with vertical expanded metal sheet under the counter-current flow of gas and liquid by the static method using a tracer. The observed experimental concentration profiles has not confirmed our earlier proposed model of back mixing, based on the concentration profiles in absorption runs. These profiles do not even conform with the axially dispersed plug flow model currently used to describe axial mixing in packed bed columns. The concentration profiles may be described by a combination of the axially dispersed plug flow model with back flow.

An experimental method and technique are described in the paper of simultaneous detection of the transfer functions outlet-gas-stream-to-inlet-gas-stream and outlet-liquid-stream-to-inlet-gas-stream for the absorption of oxygen into water in a counter-current packed bed column. Both transfer functions were simultaneously monitored by means of three oxygen electrodes operating on the polarographic principle. The signals of these electrodes were processed in three steps to yield parameters of the model of physical absorption of gas. The first step was on-line evaluation of the Fourier coefficients of the principal harmonic component in all three monitored streams. The second step was the calculation of the frequency characteristics of both transfer functions while the third step yielded parameters of the model by optimization in the frequency domain. The method permits simultaneous evaluation of the parameters of the flow of both phases in the column and the interfacial transfer of oxygen.

Compressed air free from traces of water vapour is vital in many applications in an industrial sector. This study focuses on parametric optimization of a pressure-based packed bed adsorption system for air dehumidification through the Taguchi method and Genetic Algorithm. The effect of operational parameters, namely absolute feed air pressure, feed air linear velocity, and purge air flow rate percent on adsorption uptake rate of molecular sieve 13X-water pair, are studied based on L25 orthogonal array. From the analysis of variance, it has been found that absolute feed air pressure and purge air flow rate percent were the parameters making significant improvement in the adsorption uptake rate. A correlation representing the process was developed using regression analysis. The optimum adsorption conditions were obtained through the Taguchi method and genetic algorithm and verified through the confirmation experiments. This system can be recommended for the industrial and domestic applications that require product air with the dew point temperature below 0°C.

Plug flow of coarse particles was investigated experimentally in a horizontal pipe, in which a sub-pipe for secondary air injection was installed. Measurements were made about the plug motion, pressure drop, and transportation properties, and the roles of the main and sub-pipe air flow were clarified. The main air flow increases the number of plugs, while the sub-pipe air flow increases the plug velocity. The higher the main pipe air flow rate, the more regular the motion. The height of a stationary layer of deposited particles, which is built on the bottom of the main pipe, decreases with increasing the sub-pipe air flow rate. The pressure drop in the moving plug is quantitatively much smaller than that in the stationary packed bed of same particles.

In this paper, results of experiments and numerical simulations for counter-current flow in a pressurized water reactor hot leg under reflux cooling are summarized. In the experiments, we used two types of small scale PWR hot legs. One was a 1/5th scale rectangular duct, and the other was a 1/15th scale circular pipe. Air and water were used for gas and liquid phases. The air flow rate and the supplied water flow rate were varied to observe flow pattern and measure the counter-current flow limitation (CCFL) characteristics. Flow patterns in the elbow and the inclined section were strongly affected by those in the horizontal section. In the 1/15th scale circular pipe experiments, CCFL characteristics obtained by increasing the air flow rate differed from those obtained by decreasing it. CCFL characteristics corresponded to the flow pattern transition. In the numerical simulations, we used a three-dimensional two-fluid model to evaluate the capability of predicting counter-current flow in the hot leg. Good agreements between measured and predicted flow patterns and CCFL characteristics were obtained by using an appropriate set of correlations for interfacial friction coefficient. We also carried out simulations of actual hot leg conditions to examine the effects of fluid properties and size. Predicted flow patterns and CCFL characteristics were close to those of scale model calculations. We concluded the combination of calculation model and interfacial friction coefficients used in this study can predict the counter-current flow in a hot leg.
