Study on simultaneous heat and mass transfer during the physical vapor transport of Hg2Br2 under ㎍ conditions  

Kim, Geug Tae (Department of Advanced Materials and Chemical Engineering, Hannam University)
Abstract
A computational analysis has been carried out to get a thorough and full understanding on the effects of convective process parameters on double-diffusive convection during the growth of mercurous bromide ($Hg_2Br_2$) crystals on earth and under ${\mu}g$ conditions. The dimensional maximum magnitude of velocity vector, ${\mid}U{\mid}_{max}$ decreases much drasticlly near Ar = 1, and, then since Ar = 2, decreases. The ${\mu}g$ conditions less than $10^{-2}g$ make the effect of double-diffusion convection much reduced so that adequate advective-diffusion mass transfer could be obtained.
