reportPast studies of heat and mass transfer in packed beds, which have disagreed substantially in their findings, have nearly all been done with beds of regular particles of uniform size, whereas oil-shale retorting involves particles of diverse shapes and widely ranging sizes. We have made 349 runs in which we measured mass-transfer rates from naphthalene particles buried in packed beds through which air was passed at room temperature. The very strong analogy between convection of heat and mass makes possible to infer heat-transfer coefficients from measured mass-transfer coefficients and fluid properties. Some of the beds consisted of spheres, both naphthalene and inert, of the same size or contrasting sizes or distributed sizes. In othe...
