Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Design an experimental setup to measure the mass transfer coefficient of CO2 in water and derive a correlation based on your findings. Discuss the parameters that you would control.
💡 Hint: Consider how to measure the concentration of CO2 before and after entering water.
Given a set of diffusivity values for different substances in water, analyze how these values impact the mass transfer coefficients and derive a general relationship.
💡 Hint: Remember that higher diffusivity typically means lower resistance to mass transfer.
