Question: Consider the wetted wall tower shown in Fig. 3 . A thin film of thickness of a Newtonian liquid B ( water ) flows along

Consider the wetted wall tower shown in Fig. 3. A thin film of thickness of a Newtonian liquid B(water) flows along (z) a vertical wall while in contact with a gas mixture containing the solute A(chlorine). The solute A diffuses and absorbed in to the liquid B. The length of contact between the two phases is relatively short during normal operation. The concentration of the solute at the liquid gas interface is constant (CAs) at the value of solubility of A.
(i) Derive the governing equation of transport of solute neglecting the curvature effect )(, the cylindrical wall may be assumed tobe a rectangular wall of width 2R,Ris the inner radius of the tower
