…Plot of overall volumetric mass-transfer coefficient for gas phase versus liquid mass velocity The experimentally determined Kga values are on the same order as the literature values, indicating some degree of accuracy. However, the literature values follow different trends than the experimentally observed values. Literature reports that as Gx increases, so does Kga. Figure 3, the experimentally determined values, shows that Kga decreases with increasing Gx. Most likely, experimental error caused inaccuracies in the experimental values.
