Gas‐Liquid Direct‐Contact Evaporation: A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the literature regarding gas-liquid direct contact evaporators is presented, addressing classic and potential applications, bubble regimes, gas holdup and bubble size distributions, as well as mathematical models proposed for simulating the unit.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the effect of liquid temperature upon bubble coalescence

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantitative criterion was developed to compute the critical velocity for bubble coalescence based on the relative velocities and the outcome (coalescence or bouncing) of the recorded collisions.

Turbulent conjugate heat and mass transfer from the surface of a binary mixture of ethanol/iso-octane in a countercurrent stratified two-phase flow system

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical study has been performed to determine evaporation rate from the surface of ethanol/iso-octane in an inclined 2D channel, where liquid and gas phases are flowing in counter-current direction.

Analysis of breakage and coalescence models for bubble columns

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of bubble breakage and coalescence models in bubble column simulations was evaluated using experimental data of bubble size distributions for the air-water system in an isothermal bubble column.

Purification of Bioethanol Using Microbubbles Generated by Fluidic Oscillation: A Dynamical Evaporation Model

TL;DR: In this paper, a computational model of a single gas microbubble immersed in a liquid of ethanol-water mixture is developed and solved numerically, which complements earlier binary distillation experiments in which the ethanol mixture is stripped by hot air microbubbles achieving around 98% vol. ethanol from the azeotropic mixture.

Non-ideal vaporization of dilating binary droplets with variable properties

TL;DR: In this article, a diffusive liquid vaporization model for multicomponent droplets has been developed, which includes spatially and time dependent density, the interdiffusion term in the energy equation, variable properties, and non-ideal phase equilibrium.

The flow of liquid-gas mixtures in vertical tubes

TL;DR: In this article, the characteristics of liquid-gas mixtures in large pumps and vertical tube boilers are explained by resolving the velocity with which bubbles move through the tube into its two components.

Heat Transfer between Bubbles and Liquid during Cold Gas Injection

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the mechanism of heat transfer between bubbles and liquid and the effect of heat transferred on the formation of bubbles and the rising characteristics of the bubbles in a water model.
