The electrochemical limiting current method was used to measure mass transfer coefficients with cocurrent upward gas-liquid flow in packed bed electrodes. Liquid-solid and overall gas-solid coefficients were determined from limiting current data in the presence of inert or reactive gas flows with the use of a plug flow model. The presence of inert gas flow increased mass transfer coefficients over those in single-phase flow by a factor of up to 1.7. As a result of boundary layer penetration by gas bubbles, sparging with reactive gas increased mass transfer rates by a factor of up to 3.5.  相似文献

Experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of various dynamic and geometric parameters on mass transfer coefficients in two-phase helically coiled flow systems. Computation of mass transfer coefficients was facilitated by the measurement of limiting current at the electrodes fixed flush with the inner surface of the tube wall. Two flow systems were chosen: a two-phase liquid solid fluidized bed and a two-phase gas–liquid up flow. An equimolar potassium ferrocyanide and potassium ferricyanide solution in the presence of sodium hydroxide was used as the liquid phase. In the fluidized bed, glass spheres and sand of different sizes were employed as fluidizing solids. In two-phase flow system nitrogen was employed as inert gas. The pressure drop in the presence of fluidizing solids in helical coils was found to increase with increase in the pitch of the coil and was maximum for straight tube. The mass transfer coefficients were found to increase with increase in liquid velocity. The mass transfer coefficients in case of gas–liquid flow were found to be independent of liquid velocity and the pitch of the coil, and were largely influenced by gas velocity only. The data were correlated using jD factor, Helical number, Froude number and Stanton number.  相似文献

Hydrodynamic and mass transfer parameters (pressure drop, gas and liquid hold-up, liquid-solid mass transfer coefficients) have been measured for porous electrodes with upward or downward co-current gas-liquid flow by means of several electrochemical techniques. The influence of the most important parameters (packing diameter, gas and liquid flow rates) and of the hydrodynamic flow regimes, has been studied. It is found that in the trickle flow regime the limiting current densities depend only on the liquid flow rates (with no measurable influence of the gas). In the upward flow configuration, the strong turbulence generated by the ascending gas bubbles leads to a sharp increase of current densities with the gas flow rate. A comparison between both configurations is presented.  相似文献

In many biological processes, increasing the rate of transport of a limiting nutrient can enhance the rate of product formation. In aerobic fermentation systems, the rate of oxygen transfer to the cells is usually the limiting factor. A key factor that influences oxygen transfer is bubble size distribution. The bubble sizes dictate the available interfacial area for gas-liquid mass transfer. Scale-up and design of bioreactors must meet oxygen transfer requirements while maintaining low shear rates and a controlled flow pattern. This is the motivation for the current work that captures multiphase hydrodynamics and simultaneously predicts the bubble size distribution.Bubbles break up and coalesce due to interactions with turbulent eddies, giving rise to a distribution of bubble sizes. These effects are included in the modeling approach by solving a population balance model with bubble breakage and coalescence. The population balance model was coupled to multiphase flow equations and solved using a commercial computational fluid mechanics code FLUENT 6. Gas holdup and volumetric mass transfer coefficients were predicted for different superficial velocities and compared to the experimental results of Kawase and Hashimoto (1996). The modeling results showed good agreement with experiment.  相似文献

Mass transfer rates were determined in a 3.4 cm i.d. trickle-bed reactor in the absence of reaction by absorption measurements and in presence of reaction. Gas flow rates were varied from 0-100 l/h and liquid flow rates from 0-1.5 l/h. The catalyst particles were crushed to an average diameter of 0.054 and 0.09 cm. Mass transfer coefficients remained unaffected by change in gas flow rate but increased with liquid rate. The data from absorption measurements were evaluated with predictions based upon plug-flow and axial dispersion model. Mass transfer coefficients were found greater in case of axial dispersion model than that of plug-flow model specially at low Reynolds number (Re1 < 1).Hydrogenation of α-methylstyrene to cumene using a Pd/Al2O3 catalyst was taken as a model reaction. Intrinsic kinetic studies were made in a laboratory-stirred-autoclave. Mass transfer coefficients were determined using these intrinsic kinetic data from the process kinetic measurements in trickle-bed reactor. Mass transfer coefficients under reaction conditions were found to be considerably higher than those obtained by absorption measurements.Correlations were suggested for predicting mass transfer coefficients at low Reynolds number.The gas to liquid mass transfer coefficients for lower gas and liquid flow rates were determined in a laboratory trickle-bed reactor. The effect of axial dispersion on mass transfer was considered in order to evaluate the experimental data. Three correlations were formulated to calculate the mass transfer coefficients, which included the effect of liquid loading, particle size and the properties of the reacting substances. The gas flow rate influences the gas to liquid mass transfer only in the region of low gas velocities. In the additional investigations of gas to liquid mass transfer without reaction in trickle-bed reactor, the mass transfer coefficients were determined under reaction conditions and the intrinsic kinetics was studied in a laboratory scale stirred autoclave with suspended catalyst. A few correlations are formulated for the mass transfer coefficients. A comparison with the gas-liquid mass transfer coefficient obtained by absorption measurements showed considerable deviations, which were illustrated phenomenologically.  相似文献

The effect of inert region on mass transfer has been studied numerically for the cathode package that is used to measure the local mass transfer rate to a solid surface in a flow system. The inert region introduces a considerable error in the limiting current method as the region increased. The overall mean Sherwood number on the cathodic electrodes with the inert region was correlated as follows.Sh m = 13.96 Re0.339(1 + RT)0.444 when RT is the ratio of the inert region to the active region. If RT is less than 0.25, the error of theoretical value to Leveque solution is less than 12%.  相似文献

Overall mass transfer coefficients, at the solid liquid interface in a rectangular cross-section flow reactor, were obtained using the limiting current technique. Empirical correlations were developed for single-phase flow for a full range of surface configurations, for laminar and turbulent flow regimes, and for isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. Isothermal mass transfer was almost doubled by the selection of the reactor slope and surface configuration. Imposition of up to a 30°C difference at the interface, enhanced mass transfer approximately four times, over the isothermal case. Mathematical simulation for mass transfer in flow reactors, is shown to agree within 15% of experimental values found in the literature and for the experiments reported here.  相似文献

The scale up of a rotor‐stator spinning disc reactor by stacking single stage rotor‐stator units in series is demonstrated. The gas‐liquid mass transfer per stage is equal to the mass transfer in a single stage spinning disc reactor. The pressure drop per stage increases with increasing rotational disc speed and liquid flow rate. The pressure drop is more than a factor 2 higher for gas‐liquid flow than for liquid flow only, and is up to 0.64 bar at 459 rad s?1. The high mass and heat transfer coefficients in the (multistage) rotor‐stator spinning disc reactor make it especially suitable for reactions with dangerous reactants, highly exothermic reactions and reactions where selectivity issues can be solved by high mass transfer rates. Additionally, the multistage rotor‐stator spinning disc reactor mimics plug flow behavior, which is beneficial for most processes. © 2011 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2012  相似文献

The gas‐liquid mass transfer coefficients (MTCs) of a trickle bed reactor used for the study of benzene hydrogenation were investigated. The Ni/Al2O3 catalyst bed was diluted with a coarse‐grained inert carborundum (SiC) particle catalyst. Gas‐liquid mass transfer coefficients were estimated by using a heterogeneous model for reactor simulation, incorporating reaction kinetics, vapor‐liquid equilibrium, and catalyst particle internal mass transfer apart from gas‐liquid interface mass transfer. The effects of liquid axial dispersion and the catalyst wetting efficiency are shown to be negligible. Partial external mass transfer coefficients are correlated with gas superficial velocity, and comparison between them and those obtained from experiments conducted on a bed diluted with fine particles is also presented. On both sides of the gas‐liquid interface the hydrogen mass transfer coefficient is higher than the corresponding benzene one and both increase significantly with gas velocity. The gas‐side mass transfer limitations appear to be higher in the case of dilution with fine particles. On the liquid side, the mass transfer resistances are higher in the case of dilution with coarse inerts for gas velocities up to 3 · 10–2 cm/sec, while for higher gas velocities this was inversed and higher mass transfer limitations were obtained for the beds diluted with fine inerts.  相似文献

Mass transfer to a wall of a horizontal rectangular channel reactor was investigated by the limiting current technique for Reynolds numbers ranging from 200 to 32000. Overall mass transfer coefficients at various mass transfer surface angles were obtained while the reactor was operated under isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. Dimensionless correlations were developed for isothermal flows from 25 to 55°C and for non-isothermal flows with applied temperature differences up to 30°C. In the laminar flow range natural convection dominated, but under turbulent conditions combined natural and forced convection prevailed. Mass transfer was approximately doubled under optimum selection of channel surface rotation, temperature gradient and flow rate.  相似文献

A modified three-phase model is proposed for batch drying of fine powders in an inert medium fluidized bed. The overall heat and mass transfer coefficients between the interstitial gas and solid phases have been determined by the proposed surface-stripping model in which the Biot number is a governing parameter. The effects of gas velocity, inlet gas temperature and mass ratio of starch to inert particles on the drying characteristics of starch in a 0.083 m ID × 0.80 m high medium fluidized bed have been determined. Based on the proposed model, the internal resistance of mass transfer at the powder is equal to the external resistance. The model predicts well the bed temperature, humidity of outlet gas, moisture content of solid particles, heat and mass transfer in an inert medium fluidized bed.  相似文献

The influence of different fluid inlet types, slits or tubes, on mass transfer in a rectangular reactor was studied. Measurements of mass transfer coefficients were made using the limiting diffusion current technique based on ferricyanide ion reduction at a large nickel electrode located downstream of abrupt expansions. The overall mass transfer coefficients obtained were 3 to 13 times greater than those obtained in fully developed flows. Overall mass transfer coefficients were correlated for Reynolds numbers ranging from 400 to 3500 by a unique equation by introducing a nondimensional expansion factor defined by the ratio of the fluid inlet cross-section to that of the reactor. The correlation equation obtained was compared with literature data.  相似文献

The influence of an inert gas phase on liquid extraction using a microstructured device is analyzed. The gas phase establishes a modified flow pattern. The performance of the gas-liquid-liquid flow is compared to that of a segmented two phase flow, as regards mass transport as well as separation. The extraction of vanillin dissolved in water with toluene was chosen as an example and experiments at different residence times were conducted by varying the total volumetric flow rate. μ-PIV measurements were performed to reveal the influence of the inert gas phase on recirculation within the liquid slugs. Addition of the gas leads to an increase in mass transfer at flow velocities above 0.08 m/s. However, no difference can be noted at lower flow velocities and longer residence times, respectively. The two liquid phases were separated within the microstructured device by using a capillary separator. Purity was always higher than 96%. For two phase segmented flow, the toluene phase was pure, whereas the water phase was free of toluene rests when applying the inert gas phase. Thus, the inert gas phase can be used to enhance mass transfer under certain circumstances and to tune the separation behavior of a capillary separator.  相似文献

A study of the effect of particulate solids on mass transport behaviour in cross-corrugated membrane systems is reported. The electrochemical limiting current technique was employed to determine the mass transfer coefficients. The influence of cross-corrugated structures, to simulate membranes, and the effect of the orientation of flow to the angle of corrugation (0°, 45° and 90°) on the mass transfer coefficient is reported. The effect of particulate solids on mass transport was investigated using SiO2, at concentrations of up to 0.2 wt %. The presence of SiO2, at a concentration lower than 0.2%, gave higher values of mass transfer coefficient compared to those in the absence of the solid. The mass transport correlations showed that even at low values of Reynolds number there is evidence of turbulence.  相似文献

A so-called blockage geometry consisting of a rod with a fin positioned concentrically within a pipe is used to asses the capabilities of numerical turbulent flow and mass transfer models to predict the turbulent mass transfer coefficients. Measurements of the mass transfer coefficient have been performed for a range of fin diameters and flow rates. The limiting diffusion current measurements were performed using the ferri-ferrocyanide system and nickel electrodes. Different mass transfer turbulence models are used for the calculations and the results are compared with the measurements. The influence of flow rate and fin diameter on the mass transfer rate is examined.  相似文献

The gas-slurry-solid fluidized bed is a unique operation where the upward flow of a liquid-solid suspension contacts with the concurrent up-flow of a gas, supporting a bed of coarser particles in a fluidized state. In the present study we measured the gas holdup, the coarse particle holdup, the cylinder-to-slurry heat transfer coefficient, and the cylinder-to-liquid mass transfer coefficient at controlled slurry concentrations. The slurry particles were sieved glass beads of 0.1 mm average diameter and their volumetric fraction was varied at 0, 0.01, 0.05 or 0.1. The slurry and the gas velocities were varied up to about 12 and 15 cm/s, respectively. The coarse particles fluidized were sieved glass beads of average diameters of 3.6 and 5.2 mm. The individual phase-holdup values were measured and served for use in correlating the heat and mass transfer coefficients. The heat and mass transfer coefficients in the slurry flow, gas-slurry transport bed, slurry-solid fluidized bed and gas-slurry-solid fluidized bed operations can be correlated well by dimensionless equations of a unified formula in terms of the Nusselt (Sherwood) number, the Prandtl (Schmidt) number and the specific power group including the energy dissipation rate per unit mass of slurry, with different numerical constants and exponent values, respectively, to the heat and mass transfer coefficients. The presence of an analogy between the heat and mass transfer from the vertically immersed cylinder in these slurry flow, gas-slurry transport bed and gas-slurry-solid fluidized bed systems is suggested.  相似文献

Hydrodynamic and mass transfer characteristics of water–air system in a co‐current downflow contacting column (CDCC) were studied for various nozzle diameters at different superficial gas velocities and liquid re‐circulation rates. Gas hold‐up and liquid‐side mass transfer coefficient increased with increasing superficial gas velocity and liquid flow rate but decreased with increasing nozzle diameter. It is shown that correlations developed, which are based on liquid kinetic power per liquid volume present in the column, and superficial gas velocity explains gas hold‐up and the mass transfer coefficient within an error 20% for all gas and liquid flow rates and nozzle diameters used. The constants of correlations for gas hold‐up and mass transfer coefficient were found to be considerably different from other gas–liquid contacting systems. © 2003 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

Mass transfer enhancement by small obstacles attached to the cathode in electrolytic flow cells of 5x5 mm cross-section and 500 mm length was investigated. Double beam laser interferometry was used to observe the local mass transfer boundary layer thicknesses preceding and following rod-shaped dielectric obstacles placed normal to the direction of electrolyte flow. Flow patterns have been visualized by use of suspensions of small inert particles and dark field photography. For the evaluation of the effectiveness of mass transport enhancement, pressure drops, and limiting currents for the reduction of ferricyanide have been measured in the range of Reynolds Number 80 to 3200. The degree of enhancement increases with decreasing obstacle spacing until an optimal spacing of approximately 15 times the obstacle size is reached. A three to five-fold increase in the average mass transfer coefficient is achieved by the use of obstacles with a small fraction of the pumping power required to obtain the same limiting current by increasing the flow rate in the unobstructed channel. Small obstacles produce efficient mixing near the electrode surface, and corresponding improvement in uniformity and magnitude of mass transport rates, without increasing the energy dissipation in the bulk fluid.  相似文献
