Sherwood number

Input(s)

Lo\boldsymbol{L}_{\boldsymbol{o}}: Characteristic Length (m)

kx\boldsymbol{k}_{\boldsymbol{x}}: Single-phase Mass Transfer Coefficient (mol/(m2 s))\left(\mathrm{mol} /\left(\mathrm{m}^{2} \mathrm{~s}\right)\right)

DAB\boldsymbol{D}_{\boldsymbol{A} \boldsymbol{B}}: Diffusivity of the Binary System (m2/s)\left(\mathrm{m}^{2} / \mathrm{s}\right)

c: Total Molar Concentration (mol/m3)\left(\mathrm{mol} / \mathrm{m}^{3}\right)

Output(s)

Sh: Sherwood number (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

Sh=(kx Lo)(cDAB)\mathrm{Sh}=\frac{\left(\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{x}} * \mathrm{~L}_{\mathrm{o}}\right)}{\left(\mathrm{c} * \mathrm{D}_{\mathrm{AB}}\right)}
