Hold-up in a Rotary Drier

Study of Average Static Hold-up Along a Rotary Disc Contactor in the Presence of Nanoparticles

Rotary disc contactor (RDC) has been widely used for liquid-liquid extraction owing to its advantages such as high operational flexibility, efficiency, throughput, as well as low driving power and capital cost. As a key variable in liquid-liquid extraction columns, hold-up has been discussed in the literature in three categories: static, dynamic and total hold-up.1 Static hold-up refers to that...

Is There a Hold–up Problem?

Most literature on the hold–up problem assumes that ex post bargaining outcomes are insensitive to prior investment costs. However, many bargaining procedures admit multiple equilibria and hence allow investment costs to affect bargaining outcomes. On the other hand, multiplicity of equilibria leaves scope for coordination failure. We report on three experiments in which unilateral investment i...

Investigation of Effective Parameters on Phase Inversion Hold-up in Continuous Mixer-settler

In this paper, we studied effect of different parameters including density, viscosity, interfacial tension and solute transfer concentration on phase inversion hold-up. The results showed that change in phase density ratio had no effect on phase inversion hold-up. It also disclosed that the phase viscosity ratio was the most effective parameter affecting phase inversion hold-up and each phase h...

Investigation of Gas Hold-up and Bubble Behavior in a Split-Cylinder Airlift Reactor: Pseudo-Plastic Non-Newtonian Fluids

Information Control in the Hold-up Problem∗

Hold-up risks can be mitigated by creating asymmetric information about the investment using information control. In this paper, we study the investment level and welfare achievable with information control and the information structure that implements them. Our main result identifies a separation between information that creates ex-ante investment incentive and information that causes ex-post ...
