Notes:
Continuous-phase mass transfer coefficients and drop sizes in agitated vessels are correlated with operating variables and physical properties of liquid-liquid systems. In formulating mass transfer coefficients, a realistic mechanism has been developed, involving periodically varying rates of surface renewal associated with droplet circulation through varying degrees of turbulence around the vessel. Relationships are obtained for optimized design and scale-up.
