Abstract
Specific interfacial area has been computed from experimental values of the gas-side volume mass transfer coefficient, kga, and the theoretically derived expressions for gas-side mas transfer coefficient per unit area of interfacial surface, kg. The results have been compared with the specific interfacial area determined experimentally using the chemical method.
