CONDENSATION QUEST: INVESTIGATING MASS TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS IN A TRANSPORT PHENOMENA LABORATORY'S HUMIDIFICATION TOWER

Abstract

In the realm of transport phenomena, understanding mass transfer processes is of paramount importance. This study delves into the investigation of mass transfer coefficients within the context of a transport phenomena laboratory's humidification tower. Through meticulous experimentation and analysis, the study explores the intricacies of condensation, a critical mass transfer phenomenon. By employing a comprehensive approach that encompasses theoretical models, practical trials, and data analysis, the research sheds light on the factors influencing mass transfer coefficients during humidification. The insights gained contribute to a deeper understanding of heat and mass transfer in complex systems, with potential applications in diverse fields such as chemical engineering, environmental sciences, and energy systems.
