Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A dilute pollutant enters a lake at a specific concentration. How would you estimate the mass transfer coefficient for this scenario, and what variables would you consider?
💡 Hint: Think about how pollutants typically disperse in natural water bodies.
In a control volume analysis of a gas transferring to a liquid, a student measures flux but needs to calculate concentration at the interface. How can they apply empirical correlations effectively to estimate this interface concentration?
💡 Hint: What measurements could simplify calculating concentrations in this context?
