Bubble swarm characteristics in bubble columns

New correlations have been proposed for estimation of gas phase holdup, characteristic velocity, interfacial area for mass transfer and mean bubble size of bubble swarms under dispersed and fluidized operation of bubble columns employing single — and multi-orifice distributors. The analysis of results include available literature data of other investigators.
