Chemical Engineering > GATE 2013 > Mass Transfer Coefficient
A study was conducted in which water was pumped through cylindrical pipes made of a sparingly soluble solid. For a given pipe and certain flow conditions, the mass transfer coefficient kc has been calculated as 1mm/s using the correlation Sh=0.025 Re0.6Sc0.33. If the velocity of the fluid and the diameter of the pipe are both doubled, what is the new value of kc in mm/s, up to 2 digits after the decimal point?

Correct : 1.52
