Abstract
The numerical simulation of air turbulent flow within the model packing has been performed with the use of the "Fluent" CFD software. The influence of the packing geometry and the hydrodynamic conditions on the packing hydrod ynamic resistance was determined. The theoretical results were compared wit h the experimental data obtained under the same conditions.
