The effective mass transfer area (ae) of three structured packings (Mellapak 250Y, Mellapak 500Y, and Flexipac 1Y) was measured via chemical absorption in a 0.427 m ID column as a function of liquid load (1–30 gpm/ft2or 2.4–73.2 m3/m2.h), liquid viscosity (1−−15 mPa.s), and surface tension (30–72 mN/m). Viscosity had no effect and surface tension had only a weak effect on the effective area. The ratio of effective area to specific surface area (ae/ap) was correlated as a function of the liquid Weber and Froude numbers within limits of ±15% for the entire experimental database:
