“…Falling film evaporator has been widely applied in chemical industry and seawater desalination due to its high heat transfer performance and small heat transfer temperature difference [25][26][27]. In the present work, the falling film method is used for heat recovery from the flue gas by direct contacting between the water film and the flue gas.…”

“…Chen et al applied a two-equation model proposed by Liu for the closure of turbulent mass transfer equation simulating the hydrodynamics and mass transfer behavior in the REU of Mellapak 350Y based on the VOF method. Quan et al used the VOF method to study falling liquid film on a heated vertical plate. The research done by Raynal et al studied the thickness of liquid film, holdup, and mass transfer between phases with the use of the VOF model, as well. − More recently, Dong et al also used the VOF model to locate the gas–liquid interface, aiming for the determination of the mass transfer coefficient in structured packing.…”

A multiscale method for a novel structured packing, Winpak, was developed to study liquid distribution and local hydrodynamics. The method combines a unit network model with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The unit network model was used to predict the liquid distribution at the macroscale by defining 10 distribution coefficients. The distribution coefficients were obtained based on microscale behavior of liquid distribution which was simulated in six representative elementary units by the CFD method. The VOF model was used to capture the interface between the gas phase and the liquid film. Through simulation results, three flow patterns were observed. In addition, the relatively large liquid holdup and wetting area of Winpak were elucidated. The average film thickness in REUs was also investigated. Furthermore, the liquid distribution obtained from the macroscale model indicates that the windows could mitigate the tendency of liquid flowing toward the sidewall.
