Abstract

The work is a continuation of an electrochemical mass transfer study which employed a cell with alternatingly spaced annular and full discs. Pumped liquid flow through the cell is now combined with rotation of the full discs. The influence of the different parameters on mass transfer at four characteristic surfaces in a cell element is analysed, and an empirical correlation is obtained for each surface. In the entrance region, where the radial flow is divergent, mass transfer control is mixed, while it is controlled by rotation in the convergent exit channel.
