Dispersion Phenomena as Derived from Flow Properties

Longitudinal Dispersion Phenomena as Derived from Flow Properties [Pg.330]

Longitudinal dispersion in the continuous phase (the liquid phase for a bubble column, and the emulsion phase for a fluidized catalyst bed) is closely related to flow properties of the equipment. Here, we wish to describe the longitudinal dispersion phenomena in terms of the fluid-dynamic properties of the equipment. The prime purpose is to test whether the fluid-dynamic analysis developed earlier is sound, but lon- [Pg.330]

Theory of Longitudinal Dispersion for the Recirculation Flow Regime [Pg.331]

A gas bubble column is taken here as a model equipment undergoing longitudinal dispersion of the continuous phase. The theory obtained is equally applicable to a fluidized catalyst bed of good fluidity exhibiting similar flow properties. The following procedure is from Miyauchi (M27). [Pg.331]

In the bubble column the velocity profile of recirculating liquid is shown in Fig. 27, where the momentum of the mixed gas and liquid phases diffuses radially, controlled by the turbulent kinematic viscosity Pf When I/l = 0 (essentially no liquid feed), there is still an intense recirculation flow inside the column. If a tracer solution is introduced at a given cross section of the column, the solution diffuses radially with the radial diffusion coefficient Er and axially with the axial diffusion coefficient E. At the same time the tracer solution is transported axially Iby the recirculating liquid flow. Thus, the tracer material disperses axially by virtue of both the axial diffusivity and the combined effect of radial diffusion and the radial velocity profile. [Pg.331]
