2026Mass TransferEquipment for Gas-Liquid OperationshardNAT2 Marks
The flooding velocity curves for two different structured packings are shown in the figure. The ratio of mass velocities of liquid (GxG_x) to that of the gas (GyG_y) is 1.27. The density of the liquid (ρx\rho_x) is 1200 kg m31200 \text{ kg m}^{-3} and that of the gas (ρy\rho_y) is 1.2 kg m31.2 \text{ kg m}^{-3}. For both the packings, the allowable superficial vapor velocity is 60%60\% of flooding velocity (u0,Fu_{0,F}). The ratio of allowable mass velocity of the vapor in packing P to that in packing Q is _____________ (rounded off to one decimal place).
