Good evening everyone,

Am still designing my absorber , and now am calculating the packed column height and for that i need to calculated gas phase mass transfer coefficient and the liquid one to get the overall gas phase mass transfer coefficient , from where i can get the gas and/or liquid phase mass transfer coefficient for syngas and methanol ?? are there an equations that help to get k_y and k_x ?? can hysys get them for me ?? if yea ,, where in hysys ?

thanks in advance ,,

Hi,

I would search into two books: Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook or Ludwig's Applied Process Design for Chemical Engineers.

You will find the solution in "Distillation Design" by Henry Z. Kister.
