erface Problem 1
The gas A is being absorbed in a absorption tower. At a certain point in the tower the bulk gas concentration is YA=0.6 mole fraction and x=0.08 mole fraction. From the correlations for towers and for dilute solutions, the film mass transfer coefficient for gas A are k'x=1.2molhr.cm2 and k'y=1.6molhr.cm2, and the overall mass transfer coefficient are Ky'=0.35molhr.cm2 and Kx'=1.037molhr.cm2
If the interface point (xAi,yAi)=(0.273,0.52), calculate Resistance in gas film for equimolar case
a)22%1k'y
b)39%
c)45%
d)55%
Calculate the overall point (xA**,yA**) from the following figure :
a)(0.3,0.1)
b)(0.3,0.3)
c)(0.1,0.3)
d)(0.1,0.5)
