Estimate the diameter of a vertical V-L separator containing a 4-in (100 mm) thick wire mesh mist

Question:

Estimate the diameter of a vertical V-L separator containing a 4-in (100 mm) thick wire mesh mist eliminator. The properties of the gas and liquid arePL = 870 kg/m, Pg = 9.41 kg/m, vg = 7.32 m/s, v = 1.553 m/min = 0.02588 m/s,  = 0.0019 kg/m/s.

Consider a mist eliminator with a kSB = 0.11 m/s that has a specific surface area, a = 300 m2/m3, and a porosity, ε = 0.98.
