ABSTRACT
The first aspect was discussed in Section 2.10 where two possible equation sets were considered for the solution of mass transfer problems. For a binary system composed of components A and B, it was determined that the better procedure for isothermal mass transfer problems is to solve five equations (a species continuity equation for component A, the overall continuity equation, and three equations of motion for the mixture) for the following five field variables: ωA, p, and three velocity components. The objective of this chapter is to consider the second aspect, i.e., determining the most efficient method for carrying out the solution process using this equation set.
