Pressure drop in packed beds with horizontally or vertically stratified structure

Flow through Packed Beds and Fluidized Beds

Chemical engineering operations commonly involve the use of packed and fluidized beds. These are devices in which a large surface area for contact between a liquid and a gas (absorption, distillation) or a solid and a gas or liquid (adsorption, catalysis) is obtained for achieving rapid mass and heat transfer, and particularly in the case of fluidized beds, catalytic chemical reactions. You wil...

Pressure Drop in Liquid-Solid Circulating Fluidized Beds

An experiment was conducted to obtain data of pressure drop in riser tubes of liquid-solid circulating fluidized beds. In the experiment, 2 kinds of riser tube having a diameter of 24mm and 36mm were used. Tested particles were of glass and ceramics, and their diameter range was from 2.10 to 4.95mm. Water at ambient conditions was used as the fluidizing fluid. Pressure drop in riser tubes was m...

Simulation of water surface profile in vertically stratified rockfill dams

Detention rockfill dams are accounted as economically efficient structures for flood control, river bed and banks protection, flow diversion, etc. As the hydraulic behavior of these structures, when are used for flood control, is affected by the depth of water in their porous media, there is interests to predict water surface profile through the body of these structures. In this research, we de...

LOCAL BASES WITH STRATIFIED STRUCTURE IN $I$-TOPOLOGICAL VECTOR SPACES

In this paper, the concept of {sl local base with  stratifiedstructure} in $I$-topological vector spaces is introduced. Weprove that every $I$-topological vector space has a balanced localbase with stratified structure. Furthermore, a newcharacterization of $I$-topological vector spaces by means of thelocal base with stratified structure is given.
