Depends on packing type and mass transfer coefficient. Total Packing Height (Z): Z = NTU × HTU 1. D. Pressure Drop Calculation

ratios) to prevent ugly #DIV/0! or #NUM! errors from breaking your dashboard layout. 5. Limitations of Excel and When to Upgrade
Rigorous HTU requires iteration. In your best Excel sheet, create a small lookup table of packing factors (KGa values) and use: Z (packing height, ft) = NTU * HTU Add 20% safety factor: = Z_calc * 1.2
