sherwood number

The Sherwood number (Sh) is a dimensionless number used in mass-transfer operation. It represents the ratio of lengthscale to the diffusive boundary layer thickness. It is defined as follows

Sh = \frac{K_c L}{\mathcal{D}}

It is the mass-transfer equivalent of the Nusselt number where

$K_c$ = overall mass transfer coefficient;
$L$ = characteristic length;
$\mathcal{D}$ = component diffusion coefficient
