Thanks for your reply. It gives data for the different Koch Packings.To more elaborate my question ,my company fabricated Pall Rings in Borosilicate Glass .I have to calculate void fraction and void volume.Please help .(Free Surface Area already calculated).

For Packing factor I decided to use Air -Water system.
Which is the favorable system?
How it corelate to other gas-liquid system?
