Investigation of Packing Effect on Mass Transfer Coefficient in a Single Drop Liquid Extraction Column

On the liquid drop model mass formulae and charge radii

An adjustment to 782 ground state nuclear charge radii for nuclei with N,Z ≥ 8 leads to R0 = 1.2257 A 1/3 fm and σ = 0.124 fm for the charge radius. Assuming such a Coulomb energy Ec = 3 5 eZ/1.2257 A 1 3 , the coefficients of different possible mass formulae derived from the liquid drop model and including the shell and pairing energies have been determined from 2027 masses verifying N,Z ≥ 8 a...

Drop-breakage in Agitated Liquid-liquid Dispersions

Experimental data from batch vessels on cumulative volumetric drop-size distributions at various times are shown to yield useful information on probabilities of droplet-breakup as a function of drop-size. Such information is sufficient for a priori prediction of drop-sizes in agitated dispersions in batch and continuous vessels. It may also be useful in predicting heat and/or mass transfer in l...

Phase transition in liquid drop fragmentation.

A liquid droplet is fragmented by a sudden pressurized-gas blow, and the resulting droplets, adhered to the window of a flatbed scanner, are counted and sized by computerized means. The use of a scanner plus image recognition software enables us to automatically count and size up to tens of thousands of tiny droplets with a smallest detectable volume of approximately 0.02 nl . Upon varying the ...
