Simulation Study of Radial Heat and Mass Transfer Inside a Fixed Bed Catalytic Reactor
A rigorous two-dimensional model is developed for simulating the operation of a less-investigated type steam reformer having a considerably lower operating Reynolds number, higher tube diameter, and non-availability of extra steam in the feed compared with conventional steam reformers. Simulation results show that reasonable predictions can only be achieved when certain correlations for wall to...
متن کاملHeat and Mass Transfer in Fixed-bed Tubular Reactor
Heat and mass transfer problem in a fixed-bed tubular reactor is one of the major concerns in the chemical engineering. The two dimensional axial plug flow model was used for a water gas shift reactor to compare heat conduction or mass diffusion with convective effect. In the case of fast fluid flow in highly permeable catalyst-bed, convective heat transfer was dominant compared to heat conduct...
متن کاملHeat Transfer at Convective Solid Melting in Fixed Bed
A method to determine experimentally the melting rate, rm, and the heat transfer coefficients, αv (W/(mK)), at convective melting in a fixed bed of particles under adiabatic regime is established in this paper. The method lies in the determining of the melting rate by measuring the fixed bed height in time. Experimental values of rm, α and α v were determined using cylindrical particles of ice ...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation a Catalytic Fixed Bed Reactor to Produce Ethyl Benzene from Ethanol
Ethyl benzene used increasingly each year is the raw material of producing styrene monomer. This substanceis produced from benzene alkylation with ethylene or ethanol, depending on the availability and cost of rawmaterials. In this study benzene alkylation in the presence of ethanol in a catalytic fixed bed reactor inthree states of isotherm, adiabatic and non-isotherm-non-adiabatic is mathemat...
متن کاملWall-to-fluid Heat Transfer in a Catalytic Reactor at Supercritical Conditions
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies can be used for improving the understanding of fluid flow and heat transfer in packed bed systems. The objective of this work was to study the heat effects in packed bed reactor under supercritical conditions using CFD comparing the simulations with empirical correlations. Simulations were done for a geometrical model of packed bed of cylindrical catal...
