The periodic steady state for cyclic energy storage in paraffin wax

The thermal performance of a latent heat energy storage unit was studied experimentally at the periodic steady state generated by cyclic energy storage and recovery. The periodic steady state was obtained by alternating identical freezing periods with identical melting periods. The storage unit was a cylindrical container of commercial paraffin wax. Energy was transferred to (and from) the wax by temperature controlled water flowing through a submerged helical coil. Measurements were made of the amount of energy stored and recovered as functions of the freezing and melting times, the temperature of water and the geometry of the coil. A simple model was proposed to calculate the energy stored or recovered in the periodic steady state.     

Pseudo-steady state method on study of xylose hydrogenation in a trickle-bed reactor

A new approach to assess the overall mass transfer coefficients in a partial wetting trickle-bed reactor was proposed and tested in hydrogenation of xylose. An effective data-acquiring procedure featured by recycling a large volume of liquid feed has been adopted after the steady state operation. Since the volume of the fresh feed taken for recycling was so large that the xylose feed concentration decreased slowly during the prolonged recycling period, the pseudo-steady state was therefore achieved. By relating outlet and inlet xylose contents in liquid flow of the reactor, the reaction results varied with xylose feed concentration were simulated. The coefficients of the two reactants, hydrogen and xylose, were correlated simultaneously with a steady state reaction model. The estimated coefficients fell in the range of trickle-bed reactors at low flow rates and manifested a partial wetting status.     

Metabolic responses of microorganisms growing on inhibitory substrates in nonsteady state culture

The dynamics of metabolic activity of Pseudomonas putida cultured on phenol in a nonsteady state, resulting from simultaneous step increases (or decreases) in dilution rate and feed phenol concentration, were studied. Metabolic activity was determined by the uptake rate, defined as the mass of phenol degraded by a unit mass of bacteria in unit time. A minimum duration of nonsteady state was necessary to induce the metabolic pathway. The induction time for Pseudomonas putida cultured on phenol was approximately 30 min, irrespective of the type of disturbance applied. The Monod-Haldane equation was applied to fit the experimental values of uptake rate and the best kinetic parameters were calculated by the nonlinear least squares technique. Values of the kinetic parameters differed both for each parameter and type of disturbance investigated. For simultaneous step increases in dilution rate and feed phenol concentration, the value of u_m in the transient state first increased monotonically approximately four times and then decreased monotonically to the new steady state value after three residence times. Values of K_s and K_i attained those at the new steady state after three residence times, the highest being approximately three times greater than those of the steady state prior to disturbance. For simultaneous step decreases in D and S_O, values of u_m, K_s and K_i reached those at the new steady state values after four residence times.     

An Approach for Achieving Unstable Convergence for Non‐Isothermal CSTRs

The nonlinearity introduced by the temperature variation in the non‐isothermal continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) exhibits concentration multiplicity for certain parameter ranges. The dynamics of reactor temperature under these conditions would be very difficult to observe and maintain. In this work, a novel algorithm is proposed to stabilize the system by designing a cascade of CSTRs that are capable of achieving this inaccessible steady state. Optimization of reactors parameters is performed in an iterative manner to achieve this solution. For a first‐order reaction rate, this method was successful in achieving the inaccessible steady state temperature of 312.5 K using three CSTRs cascades. The suggested algorithm is presented both graphically as well as using computational optimization techniques. The transient simulation studies using the above three CSTRs showed that the unstable steady state is achieved. The newly designed cascade meets the design criteria and achieves the locally unstable steady state temperature to a high degree of accuracy.

Reaction steady states and stationary states in modelling semi-batch enzyme hydrolysis

Dimensionless material balance equations describing an uninhibited enzyme hydrolysis process in a semi-batch reactor (i.e. fed-batch reactor) are formulated; numerical solution of these equations provided concentration profiles of the enzyme-substrate complex by using published kinetic parameters. The unrestricted values obtained are compared with estimates based separately on the reaction steady state and stationary state assumptions. Results are discussed in terms of the enzyme/substrate inventory used and it is found that the reaction steady state is a satisfactory approximation only when this ratio is sufficiently small. The stationary state may be a better approximation at other values, particularly when enzyme is added to substrate or when an empty tank is being filled. Reaction yields from semi-batch and batch operations are compared. Processing takes longer in the semi-batch operations and complete conversions are only practical in this mode when enzyme is added to substrate.

Solvent system for steady state electrospinning of polyamide 6.6

A mixture of formic acid/acetic acid makes it possible to electrospin polyamide 6.6 in steady state conditions. Steady state conditions are essential in nozzle electrospinning to generate a stable process which fabricates reproducible material, permitting industrial upscaling. This study shows that only a limited mixture range of formic acid/acetic acid allows electrospinning of polyamide 6.6 in steady state. Furthermore, the weight concentration in solution; the tip to collector distance and the flow rate have been changed to control the average diameter of the nanofibres. The average diameter increases by increasing weight concentration in solution, increasing volume fraction of acetic acid in the mixture, increasing tip to collector distance and increasing flow rate. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Studies in the control of tubular reactors—II Stabilization by modal control

The lumped parameter model that was developed in Part I is linearized to obtain the linear dynamical model of the system near an unstable steady state. When concentration and temperature measurements are possible along the reactor length and their number is the same as the number of collocation points, modal state-feedback controllers are designed to relocate the largest eigenvalues to negative values and thus locally stabilize an unstable steady state. Transient calculations of the non-linear system equations are preformed and the domain of attraction of the stabilized steady state is examined for different locations of the eigenvalues of the closed loop system. It is seen that for both problems I and II the domain of attraction becomes very large when the unstable and one stable eigenvalue are shifted near the third largest one. This is true in spite of the large differences in their dynamical characteristics.
