环管反应器内传热过程的数值模拟

为了对环管反应器内传热规律进行研究,在Euler-Euler双流体动量传递模型和环管反应器聚合传质模型的基础上,考虑了环管反应器内传热过程,建立了环管反应器传热数学模型,对工业烯烃聚合环管反应器内流动、传热和传质及聚合反应过程进行了研究。反应器内浆液温度的模拟值与工业现场值吻合,说明所建立的环管反应器传热数学模型是有效的。模拟结果表明,环管反应器温度与物料浓度存在不均匀分布。在上升段,温度分布呈中心对称,在弯管段不再呈中心对称,下降段的温度因弯管段的不均匀分布而不再呈中心对称分布;随着浆液入口速度或入口固体颗粒相体积分数的增加,环管反应器上升直管段,弯管段以及下降直管段温度降低;管壁冷却水温度不同,对环管反应器内冷却能力也不同,在反应器内相同的释放热量情况下,冷却水温度越低,对反应器内物料的冷却能力就越强。

Numerical Simulation of Heat Transfer in Tubular Loop Reactor

Based on the mathematic model considering the two-fluid momentum transfer, mass transfer, heat transfer and reaction kinetics of propylene polymerization, the heat transfer characteristics in the propylene polymerization tubular loop reactor were studied. The simulated fluid temperatures along the whole reactor agree well with that measured from the industrial loop reactor, which indicates that the presented mathematic model is available to describe the heat transfer in the tubular loop reactor. The results...
