About this document

Vapor Diffusion in Air Streams by Adrian Leiva is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document presents experimental data on the rates of vaporization of nine liquids into an air stream flowing through a wetted-wall column. The apparatus consisted of a vertical pipe with the liquid falling as a film on the inner surface. Data showed that the effective film thickness model can be used to correlate the diffusion resistance to vaporization. Results were found to follow the dimensionless equation presented and were compared to existing heat transfer theories.
