    Notes: Abstract A single, fully wettable, neutrally buoyant, small radioactive particle and 16 scintillation detectors are utilized to monitor particle motion in gas-liquid bubble columns of different heights and diameters and at different gas superficial velocities. Instantaneous velocities, time-averaged velocities, Reynolds stresses and eddy diffusivities are computed from the particle position versus time data. Anisotropy, indicated by the data, was confirmed by Hurst's rescaled R/S analysis of the fluctuating velocities. For the radial direction, Hurst's exponent is about 0.5 in agreement with a random walk (diffusion)-type mechanism, while in the axial direction, Hurst's exponent of about 0.7 indicates the persistence of long-range effects.

    Notes: The current solid acid catalyst based alkylation processes suffer from rapid deactivation of the catalysts which is affected by the shape and size of the catalysts, reactor configuration and the reactants' feeding pattern. In this work, the deactivation of the solid acid catalysts in alkylation of iso-butane with butene and the reactor performance are studied using the multi-scale mathematical models. A pseudo-steady state catalyst pellet level model, incorporating the alkylation and deactivation kinetics, is coupled to the transient model of back mixed reactor configurations like a single CSTR and CSTR-in-series. The effects of catalyst shape, initial acid strength of the catalyst, paraffin-to-olefin feed ratio on the conversion of the olefin, on the yield of alkylates and on the time required for complete deactivation of the catalyst are investigated. The role of the size of the catalyst particles on the types of deactivation mechanism is elucidated. The effect of contacting pattern of iso-butane and butene in the reactor on the catalyst life and on the alkylate yield is also presented.

    Radioactive particle tracking technique for investigation of phase recirculation and turbulence in multiphase systems (1992)

    Notes: The development of a noninvasive PC-based computer automated radioactive particle tracking (CARPT) facility for investigation of phase recirculation and turbulence in multiphase systems such as fluidized beds and bubble columns is presented. In this facility, the motion of a single radioactive particle, which is dynamically similar to the recirculating phase, is monitored by an array of scintillation detectors which surround the test section. An on-line computer is used to map the flow field of the recirculating phase. The data acquisition is achieved by commercially available nuclear instrumentation via a modular, high-speed GPIB-CAMAC system through assembly language software. Using CARPT, solids' motion in gas-fluidized beds and liquid motion in bubble columns have been investigated. The capabilities and versatility of the CARPT facility is described by illustrating some typical results for mean recirculation in gas-fluidized beds with and without internals and in a gas-liquid bubble column. The results include the mean circulation profiles and turbulence parameters such as the Reynolds normal and shear stresses and the turbulent eddy dispersion coefficients. Potential applications of CARPT technique to other recirculating systems are also discussed.

    Mathematical model for predicting the molecular intensity of a solenoid-actuated pulsed beam source (1993)
    [S.l.] : American Institute of Physics (AIP)

    Notes: A mathematical model for evaluating the molecular intensity produced by a solenoid-actuated pulsed beam source is described. The particular source studied here is used to introduce reactant gas pulses at various user-specified intervals into a fixed-bed microreactor system for transient catalysis studies where quantification of the inlet pulse intensity is required for data analysis. The model equations which describe the beam source performance utilize relationships from one-dimensional isentropic gas expansion, gas effusion through a small hole, and macroscopic mass balances around the valve orifice from which a closed-form algebraic expression for the pulse intensity is obtained. The parameters in this expression represent observables which include the ideal gas specific heat capacity ratio, the stagnation properties of the gas in the supply chamber of the beam source, and the beam valve driver settings. Comparisons between experimental and predicted values for the pulse intensities, where the latter are of the order 1017 molecules per pulse, show excellent agreement.

    Laminar radial flow electrochemical reactors. I. Flow fields (1988)

    Notes: Abstract The velocity fields of three laminar radial flow electrochemical reactors are modeled using numerical and semi-analytical techniques. The capillary gap cell configuration is modeled using Galerkin finite element (GFEM) analysis and the asymptotic form of its velocities presented. An approximate asymptotic expression for entry length is also derived and compared to predicted entry lengths from the GFEM. Qualitative agreement is achieved. Two areas of flow separation are observed, their location being a function of gap width, flow Reynolds number (Re) and inlet pipe diameter. The rotating electrolyzer (REL) flow field is also simulated with the GFEM model. The insensitivity of the REL radial velocity profiles as a function of flow rate is shown. The shape of the radial velocity profiles and the degree of separation of the radial velocity jets are shown to be determined by the Taylor number (being the ratio of half-gap width over the theoretical boundary layer thickness). The asymptotic entry length solution is shown to provide a better estimate for this cell than for the capillary gap cell. Unlike the previous cells the pump cell shows less asymptotic behavior and is therefore more difficult to simulate. The GFEM approach is usually too costly for this cell and therefore perturbation techniques are applied. The resulting semi-analytical solution adequately represents laminar pump cell velocity profiles over a broad range of parameter values and is very short and easy to implement. One high Taylor number simulation is performed using the GFEM and the previously reported decoupling of electrodic mass transfer is interpreted via velocity profiles.

    Notes: Abstract This paper investigates the performance and design of three laminar radial flow electrochemical cells (the capillary gap cell, stationary discs; the rotating electrolyzer, co-rotational discs; the pump cell, one disc rotating and the other stationary). Modeling of a competing electrosynthesis pathway is described — the methoxylation of furan. The model developed incorporates convective, diffusive and migrative influences with three homogeneous and two electrodic reactions. Two sizes of reactors are considered and the performance of the different reactor types analyzed as a function of size. The superiority of the rotational cells is illustrated for this reaction scheme compared to both the capillary gap cell (CG) and a parallel plate reactor (PPER). Scale-up criteria are scrutinized and two approaches to laminar radial flow reactor scale-up are investigated. The one suggested herein shows that Taylor number, residence time,IR drop and rotational Reynolds number must all be accounted for even with a fairly simple electrosynthesis pathway. A quantitative evaluation of this scale-up procedure is included.
