An engineering approach to mass transfer performance for hollow fibre modules with shell-side axial feed flow
(1999) International Congress on Membranes and Membrane Processes 1999 p.50-50- Abstract
- An generalised engineering approach based on the analogy between mass and heat transfer is proposed to benchmark the shell-side mass transfer coefficient for axial flow in hollow fibre modules from low to moderate packing densities. The trends obtained by this approach are similar to those of correlations found in the literature and differences between the approaches are discussed. Furthermore, effects influencing mass transfer in hollow fibre modules are identified and discussed as a function of void fraction. Finally, a module specific adjustment factor is defined to account for difference between the theoretical standard and the experimentally measured performance.
