Transport Phenomena
What exactly are "transport phenomena"?
Transport phenomena are really just a fancy way that Chemical Engineers group together three areas of study that have certain ideas in common.
These three areas of study are:
Fluid mechanics
Heat transfer
Mass transfer
Transport processes
Transport Processes
Momentum Transport – transfer of momentum which occurs in moving media (fluid flow, sedimentation, mixing, filtration, etc.)
Heat Transport – transfer of energy from one region to another (drying, evaporation, distillation)
Mass Transport – transfer of mass of various chemical species from one phase to another distinct phase (distillation, absorption, adsorption, etc.)

Review
LET’S REVIEW!!!
Dimensional Analysis
Check the dimensional consistency of the following empirical equation for heat transfer between a flowing fluid and the surface of a sphere:
h – heat transfer coefficient (W/m2-K)
D – diameter of sphere (m)
k – thermal conductivity of fluid (W/m-K)
G – mass velocity of fluid (kg/m2-s)
? – viscosity (kg/m-s)
cp – heat capacity (J/kg-K)
Dimensional Analysis
We use the following convention:
Energy unit – E
Mass unit – M
Length unit – L
Time unit – t
Temperature unit – T

Material Balance
An evaporator is fed continuously with 25 metric tons/h of a solution consisting of 10% NaOH, 10% NaCl, and 80% H2O. During evaporation, water is boiled off, and salt precipitates as crystals, which are settled and removed from the remaining liquor. The concentrated liquor leaving the evaporator contains 50% NaOH, 2% NaCl, and 48% H2O.
Calculate the MT of water evaporated per hour, the MT of salt precipitated per hour, and MT of liquor produced per hour.
Material Balance
NaOH bal: 0.10(25) = 0.5M + 0C + 0H
NaCl bal: 0.10(25) = 0.02M + 1.0C + 0H
H2O bal: 0.80(25) = 0.48M + 0C + 1.0H

Material Balance
Dry gas containing 75% air and 25% NH3 vapor enters the bottom of a cylindrical packed absorption tower that is 2 ft in diameter. Nozzles in the top of the tower distribute water over the packing. A solution of NH3 in H2O is drawn at the bottom of the column, and scrubbed gas leaves the top. The gas enters at 80°F and 760 mm Hg. It leaves at 60°F and 730 mm Hg. The leaving gas contains, on the solute-free basis, 1.0% NH3.
If the entering gas flows through the empty bottom of the column at velocity (upward) of 1.5 ft/s, how many ft3 of entering gas are treated per hour? How many pounds of NH3 are absorbed per hour?
Material Balance
Volume of gas entering = velocity ? diameter of tower

Air is flowing steadily through a horizontal heated tube. The air enters at 40°F and at a velocity of 50 ft/s. It leaves the tube at 140°F and 75 ft/s. The average specific heat of air is 0.24 Btu/lb-°F.
How many Btu’s per pound of air are transferred through the wall of the tube?
