Abstract

A rotary heat and/or mass transfer arrangement in which a liquid component undergoes heat and/or mass transfer with a vapor component includes a rotor 10 on which a layer of fluid is applied by nozzles 16. The flow across the rotor is actively disturbed by a radial row of nozzles 20, to enhance the heat and/or mass transfer coefficients.
