Cross-Flow Model for Gas Separation by Membranes

A detailed flow diagram for the cross-flow model derived by Weller and Steiner (W3, W4) is shown in Fig. 13.6-1. In this case the longitudinal velocity of the high-pressure or reject stream is large enough so that this gas stream is in plug flow and flows parallel to the membrane. On the low-pressure side the permeate stream is almost pulled into vacuum, so that the flow is essentially perpendicular to the membrane. [Pg.772]

This model assumes no mixing in the permeate side and also no mixing on the high-pressure side. Hence, the permeate composition at any point along the membrane is determined by the relative rates of permeation of the feed components at that point. This cross-flow pattern approximates that in an actual spiral-wound membrane [Pg.772]

Referring to Fig. 13.6-1, the local permeation rate over a differential membrane area dA at any point in the stage is [Pg.773]

This equation relates the permeate composition y to the reject composition x at a point along the path. It is similar to Eq. (13.4-5) for complete mixing. Hwang and Kammermeyer (HI) give a computer program for the solution of the above system of differential equations by numerical methods. [Pg.773]

Weller and Steiner (W3, W4) used some ingenious transformations and were able to obtain an analytical solution to the three equations as follows  [Pg.773]
