Column diameter of packed towers

Input(s)

$\mathrm{m}$: Mass Flow Rate $(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{s})$

G: Gas Mass Flow Rate $\left(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{2} \mathrm{~h}\right)$

Output(s)

$\mathrm{d}$: Column Diameter $(\mathrm{ft})$

Formula(s)

$$ \mathrm{d}=\left(\frac{4 * \mathrm{~m}}{\pi * \mathrm{G}}\right)^{0.5} $$
