Abstract:Foaming prediction is essential for the rational selection of materials and design processes in diverse industries ranging from bioprocesses to gas processing facilities. Existing foaming prediction models lack the generality needed for a wide range of materials and overlook the foaming in pure liquids. This work introduced a novel approach to predict foaming in pure liquids based on their density, surface tension, and viscosity, calculated through Reynolds (Re) and Ohnesorge (Oh) numbers. A foaming prediction… Show more
