4.1.1. CFD and experimental results at Q=0.0053 (m3/s)
Figs. 4 and 5 show the liquid weeping rate for each tray half as a function of Fs respectively at\(h_{w}=5cm\mathbf{\ }\)and\(\ h_{w}=7.5cm\mathbf{\ }\) for Q=0.0053 (m3/s) flow rate. As can be seen from these figures, weeping rates in the upstream are higher compared to the downstream for this flow rate. Figs. 6 and 7 confirm the results of Figs. 4 and 5. Based on these figures, higher heights of weir lead to the raising of liquid weeping from the tray deck.
