Abstract:A novel multidowncomer bubble-breaking (MDBB) tray was designed based on the "droplet bubble-breaking" method to enhance the mass transfer process. The hydrodynamic parameters of the MDBB tray, including the gas−liquid flow pattern, gas holdup, dry pressure drop, clear liquid height, residual pressure drop, and wet pressure drop, were investigated through experiments and computational fluid dynamics. The modeling equations applicable to the MDBB tray were developed. The bubble size in the liquid layer was anal… Show more
