Gas Film Transfer Coefficient in Column Design Formulas

Gas Film Transfer Coefficient defines the rate at which a component of a gas mixture transfers from the bulk gas phase to the surface of a liquid or solid phase. And is denoted by k'_g. Gas Film Transfer Coefficient is usually measured using the Mole per Second Square Meter for Molar Flux of Diffusing Component. Note that the value of Gas Film Transfer Coefficient is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Gas Film Transfer Coefficient?

Gas Film Transfer Coefficient defines the rate at which a component of a gas mixture transfers from the bulk gas phase to the surface of a liquid or solid phase. Gas Film Transfer Coefficient is usually measured using the Mole per Second Square Meter for Molar Flux of Diffusing Component. Note that the value of Gas Film Transfer Coefficient is always positive.

Can the Gas Film Transfer Coefficient be negative?

No, the Gas Film Transfer Coefficient, measured in Molar Flux of Diffusing Component cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Gas Film Transfer Coefficient?

Gas Film Transfer Coefficient is usually measured using the Mole per Second Square Meter[mol/s*m²] for Molar Flux of Diffusing Component. Kilogram Mole per Second Square Meter[mol/s*m²], Millimole per Microsecond Square Meter[mol/s*m²] are the few other units in which Gas Film Transfer Coefficient can be measured.
