The Impact Of Heat Exchanging Internals On Hydrodynamics Of Bubble Column Reactor, Ahmed Jasim Jan 2016

The Impact Of Heat Exchanging Internals On Hydrodynamics Of Bubble Column Reactor, Ahmed Jasim

Masters Theses

"In this study, the impact of configuration and size of vertical heat exchanging internals in bubble columns on gas holdup, specific gas-liquid interfacial area, bubble chord length, and bubble rise velocity were investigated. Three different configurations of internals, each covering 25% of the column's cross-sectional area, were used to simulate the heat exchanging tubes utilized in the F-T process. The First configuration is a circular-like arrangement of 0.5 inch diameter vertical rods, whereas the second is a hexagonal-like arrangement of 0.5 inch diameter vertical rods. The third configuration is also a circular arrangement but of 1 inch diameter vertical rods …
