Structured packings are important elements to enhance mass and heat transfer in the chemical industry. New techniques of manufacturing, like 3D printing, can create completely new families of solids used for this purpose. In this work the effect of different 3D printing techniques in the manufacture of packings with triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS) geometry was analyzed and the influence of different 3D printing techniques in the final properties of packings produced with TMPS topologies, both numerically and experimentally, were studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
