The weeping phenomenon was investigated using some experimental tests and a numerical model. The tests were performed within a 1.22-m-diameter pilot-scale column including two chimney trays and two Nye test trays with an air-water system. The rates of weeping were measured in the Nye trays with two heights of the weir and a hole area of 5 %. Moreover, the weeping rates in the outlet and inlet halves of the Nye tray and the total weeping rate were calculated. In the next step, an Eulerian-Eulerian computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique was used. The results show good agreement between the attained CFD findings and the experimental data.
