Sumario: | Free convective mass transfer rates at vertical electrodes of expanded metal were measured by the electrochemical method. Electrode height and electrolyte concentration were varied and the dependence of the expanded metal on the geometry and on the mesh orientation with respect to the vertical direction was investigated. A single equation was developed to correlate all the results. Besides the generalized dimensionless groups for natural convection the correlation includes a parameter characterizing the geometry of the expanded metal. The correlation also represents free convective mass transfer results obtained by other investigators with vertical mesh electrodes. © 1987 Chapman and Hall Ltd. |
