Laboratory measurements of mass transfer of carbon dioxide and water vapour for smooth and rough flow conditions / F.J. Ocampo-Torres [and three others].: En13-5/91-130E-PDF
"The exchange of mass and heat across air-water interfaces is an important process in geochemical global cycles. A better understanding of the corresponding exchange coefficients and their dependence upon the relevant physical phenomena is urgently needed in order to address the problem of properly parameterizing and predicting large scale processes that influence our environment. The transfer of carbon dioxide is of particular importance since it plays a major role in the global warming process. This paper describes some laboratory measurements of the mass transfer of carbon dioxide and water vapour and the determination of the corresponding exchange coefficients. The wind speed dependence of these coefficients is for the first time revealed from experimental work. The accuracy of the measurements is unprecedented"--Management Perspective.
