Notizen:
Experiments were carried out in bubble columns for a number of liquids at pressures between 0.1 and 2.0 MPa for two column sizes. Based on the experimental results as well as extensive literature data, the extent of the effect column dimensions have on gas holdup were determined, both at low and high pressures (which is of importance to scale-up). It was also demonstrated that none of the published empirical gas holdup equations incorporate the influence of gas density accurately. Therefore, a new improved gas hold-up equation is developed that incorporates the influence of gas and liquid properties with an average error of approximately 10%. Finally, it is also discussed to what extent theinfluence of pressure on other important design parameters such as the interfacial area, the liquid volumetric mass transfer coefficient, and gas and liquid mixing, can be estimated on the basis of empirical equations.
