Active surface of the elements of irregular heat and mass transfer packings

Abstract

The mechanisms of active surface formation in irregular heat and mass transfer packings were ana lyzed. The packings under study included Raschig, Pall, and GIAP N3 rings and Intallox saddles. The effi ciencies of GIAP N3 packings of different sizes under different gas and liquid loads were compared. The packing designs were compared in terms of the useful factor of packing.
