Liquid Holdup And Pressure Drop In The Gas-Liquid Cocurrent Downflow Packed-Bed Reactor Under Elevated Pressures, Jing Guo, Muthanna H. Al-Dahhan
Liquid Holdup And Pressure Drop In The Gas-Liquid Cocurrent Downflow Packed-Bed Reactor Under Elevated Pressures, Jing Guo, Muthanna H. Al-Dahhan
Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
An Experimental Investigation of the Residence Time Distribution, Liquid Holdup, and Pressure Drop in a Gas-Liquid Downflow Packed Bed Reactor with Porous Particles Operated under Elevated Pressures is Presented. the Effects of the Two-Phase Flow Rates and Reactor Pressures on the External Liquid Holdup and Pressure Drop Are Discussed. a Mechanistic Model, Which Accounts for the Interaction between the Gas and Liquid Phases by Incorporating the Shear and Velocity Slip Factors between Phases, is Employed to Predict the External Liquid Holdup and Pressure Drop for the Experimentally Covered Flow Regime. the Involved Parameters, Such as Shear and Velocity Slip Factors …
A Sequential Approach To Modeling Catalytic Reactions In Packed-Bed Reactors, Jing Guo, Muthanna H. Al-Dahhan
A Sequential Approach To Modeling Catalytic Reactions In Packed-Bed Reactors, Jing Guo, Muthanna H. Al-Dahhan
Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A Sequential Modeling Approach is Proposed to Simulate Catalytic Reactions in Packed-Bed Reactors. the Hydrogenation of Alpha-Methylstyrene and Wet Oxidation of Phenol Are Selected as Studied Cases. the Modeling Scheme Combines a Reactor Scale Axial Dispersion Model with a Pellet Scale Model. Without Involving Any Fitting Parameters, Such an Approach Accounts for the Non-Linear Reaction Kinetics Expression and Different Types of Pellet-Liquid Wetting Contact. to Validate the Developed Modeling Scheme and the Parallel Approach Reported in the Literature, the Experimental Observations for Hydrogenation of Alpha-Methylstyrene to Cumene Have Been Employed. the Predicted Results by Both Approaches Agree Reasonably with the …
