Mass transfer zone length of adsorption unit

Input(s)

q: Water Loading $\left(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{2} \mathrm{~h}\right)$

$\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{g}}$: Velocity $(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{min})$

RS: Relative Saturation of Inlet Gas (\%)

Output(s)

$h_{z}$: Mass Transfer Zone Length (ft)

Formula(s)

$$ \mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{z}}=\frac{375 *\left(\mathrm{q}^{0.7895}\right)}{\left(\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{g}}^{0.5506}\right) *\left(\mathrm{RS}^{0.2646}\right)} $$
