Surface renewal model of mass transfer was enunciated by___________________?
Correct answer: A. Danckwerts
- A. Danckwerts
- B. Fick
- C. Toor and Marcello
- D. Stefan
Explanation
Danckwerts proposed the surface-renewal model, which treats fluid elements at an interface as being randomly replaced by fresh elements from the bulk. Fick provided the diffusion law, not this interfacial renewal model.
