Film and overall mass-transfer coefficients in packed towers. As discussed in Section 10.5 it is very difficult to measure experimentally the interfacial area A m between phases L and V. Also, it is difficult to measure the film coefficients k and ky and the overall coefficients K and Kf Usually, experimental measurements in a packed tower yield a volumetric mass-transfer coefficient that combines the interfacial area and mass-transfer coefficient.
