The solvent use for absorbing carbon dioxide for gas absorption is___.
Aqueous NaOH
For the laminar flow of a fluid in a circular pipe of radius R, the Hagen-Poiseuille equation predict the volumetric flowrate to be proportional to
R^4
Many mass-transfer operations involve the diffusion of one gas component through another non-diffusing component; absorption and _______ are typical operations defined by these equations.
Humidification
This dimensionless number relates buoyancy forces to viscous forces.
Grashof Number
Pipes having diameter 14 inches or more are designated by their
Outside Diamater
Separation of a mixture of particles into two or more portions with more uniform size.
Screening
Materials screened contains the natural moisture; it is dried prior to screening.
Dry Screening
Water is added to the mixture to aid washing of fine particles.
Wet Screening
Number of openings per linear inch.
Mesh
Screen opening
Aperture
Percentage of actual openings versus total screen area
Open Area
Material that does not pass through the screen
Oversize
Materials that passes through the screen
Undersize
For two or more screens; material passing thru one screen and retained on subsequent surface
Intermediate
Intermediates with known upper limit or lower limit diameter
Sized fractions
A part with only a known upper limit or lower limit
Unsized fractions
Relationship between successive sizes
Screen Interval
Series of testing sieves
Sieve Scale
Used to determine efficiency of screening devices; made of woven wire screens
Testing sieves
Removal of small amount of oversize
Scalping
Separation for particles with sizes of 4 mesh or larger
Coarse Separation
Impacts to power consumption and wear machine
Hardness
Normal force acts for granular materials, tearing action for fibrous materials
Structure
Tendency of material to fracture
Friability
