UDC 66.048.375

Relations for determining a motive force in a complex 
model of mass transfer as applied to concurrent, countercurrent, and 
cross motion of the vapor and liquid phases have been introduced. 
These forces have been compared for different forms of organization 
of the flow, and their comparison with similar quantities from the 
known Murphree and Hausen models is presented.
