Abstract
This contribution is concerned with interfacial mass transfer into falling films, for which detailed insight is achieved by means of Direct Numerical Simulation employing the Volume-of-Fluid method. As for the numerical model for mass transfer across the fluid interface of falling films, we employ the two-scalar approach.We examine the influence of wave regimes and flow patterns on local Sherwood numbers and identify distinct mass transfer enhancement mechanisms taking effect in specific wave regimes.
