Experimental studies have been made in order to analyze the mass-transfer characteristics in the gas phase in the reactor used for chemical reactions between an impinging jet of gas and an inductively-stirred liquid iron. The methods which have been used for the experimental studies are (a) sublimation of naphthalene into a nitrogen stream, (b) evaporation of pure liquids into a nitrogen stream, and (c) absorption of ammonia from ammonia-nitrogen stream into water.
The results obtained are as follows;
1) Average Sherwood numbers in the region of

and (
