Abstract

The rate of evaporation from a water panel to air flow in a wind tunnel is investigated experimentally. A turbulent air is flowed in a rectangular duct (11000iguration. But it decreases with the increase in positive pressure gradient in case of divergent configuration. The maximum enhancement in mass transfer coefficient in case of negative pressure gradient is 297% at Re=11000 and B=0.06898. An empirical correlation for Sherwood number as a function of Reynolds number, Schmidt number and area ratio parameter for the considered operating conditions are obtained.
