DESCRIPTION :

A Thin film of liquid running down the inside of vertical pipe, with gas flowing either concurrently or counter currently, constitutes a wetted wall tower. In this the liquid is dispersed into thin film .Measurement of the rate of evaporation of the liquid in to the gas stream over known surface permits calculation of the mass transfer coefficients for the gas phaseThe equipment consists of Borosilicate glass round bottom flask as distillation still . The distillation is carried out by heating the still. The vapors coming from the column is going in to the condenser. The distillate is collected in round bottom flask.

RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT :

• To study the simple distillation.
• To verify Rayleigh Equation for simple distillation.
