Global Mass Transfer Coefficient Technique

Conductivity Probes
The electrical probe will be developed to measure a conductivity of liquid in a reactor. The probe consists of couples of small wires that will be arranged as a mesh. At least two mesh will be arranges close together. Some salt will be injected to reactor and the probe will measure the electrical properties of the liquid. The probe can measure the local liquid velocity by this technique. The map of liquid velocity distribution can be determined.
