Editorial summary

The paper derives and validates correlations for pressure loss and convective mass transfer in inline and staggered cross-flow hollow-fibre membrane bundles at low Reynolds numbers. A FLEC-related relation is cited as methodological background, while the experiments concern membrane-bundle humidification rather than material emissions in a FLEC.

Editorial, non-verbatim summary based on the publisher abstract and accessible article text snippets; no commercially reusable licence for the original abstract was verified.

FLEC use

FLEC mention, comparison or reference

FLEC appears in cited methodological context used to discuss a mass-transfer relation. The reported apparatus is a structured hollow-fibre bundle, not a FLEC.
