[en] Presentation of the x-ray tomography setup and of the experimental results relative to the fluid distribution and to the flow morphology in a column packed with high performance packing (Mellapak 752Y). The influence of liquid flowrate and of liquid viscosity is addressed. Results are used to get information required to model the mass-transfer performance in the column.
