Abstract

"Steam cleaning methods are used by industries to remove mass of dirt and grease deposits from machine parts and other surfaces. It is necessary to know the rate at which this mass can be removed from a surface. The present investigation was made to determine this rate of mass removal. The mass transfer rate is influenced by two phenomena; namely, heat transfer and momentum transfer. Both of these were discussed and the results obtained from the analysis were used in determining the total mass transfer rate. The effects of various parameters, such as density and velocity of the cleaning fluid, Jet impingement angle, etc., on the total mass transfer rate were included"--Abstract, page ii.
