The influence of the contamination on the mass transfer inside the bubble was studied for different ranges of dispersed phase Reynolds numbers (0.1 < Red < 10), Schmidt numbers (0.7<Sc <5) and different values of the polar angle cap ?, characterizing the extent of a rigidΘ cap at the rear of the bubble (Θ cap = 0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150° and 180°). The results show that the flow and the concentration profiles are strongly dependent on the Reynolds number, the Schmidt number and the stagnantΘ cap angle (Θ cap).enArticle
