Abstract
A study of the effect of a moving liquid film and an air stream on gas-phase controlled convective heat and mass transfer has been made, which would find widespread application in devices which utilize solar energy. The governing equations for air phase have been solved for various values of the ratio of the liquid to air velocity. Profiles of velocity, temperature, and concentration as well as their gradients are presented. The results, compared with experimental findings obtained with mass transfer being extended to the liquid phase as well, show an encouraging trend. © 1977.
