Flow spaces

Spreadsheet Structure There are three principal sections to the spreadsheet. The first has tables of as-reported and normalized composition measurements. The second section has tables for overall and component flows. These are used to check the overall and component material balance constraints. The third has adjusted stream and component flows. Space is provided for recording the basis of the adjustments. The structure changes as the breadth and depth of the analysis increases. 

A typical example of calculation of the thermal coefficient of performance for forced convection of air is shown in Fig. 2.69. COP surfaces are presented for the maximum and least material aluminum heat sink configurations in the design flow space between 0.01-0.04 m /s and 20-80 Pa. 

Stitnour 6 1, who studied the sedimentation of small uniform particles, adopted a similar approach, using the viscosity of the fluid, the density of the suspension and a function of the voidage of the suspension to take account of the character of the flow spaces, and obtained the following expression for the velocity of the particle relative to the fluid up ... 

The authors write the equations of motion for the trickling flow (space conservation, mass-and momentum conservation of both phases). The latter take the following form ... 

An impinging stream contactor usually contains several flow spaces of different natures, which exhibit not only different flow characteristics but also different contributions to the residence time distribution. 

Ultimately at high frequencies the pulses overlap and we arrive in the dispersed bubble flow regime. Thus we consider the pulses to be zones of the bed already in the dispersed bubble flow, spaced by moving compartments that are still in the gas-continuous flow regime. This concept is very helpful in calculating mass transfer and mixing phenomena, as well as in pressure drop relations (9) where it appears that above the transition point the pressure drop can be correlated linearly with the pulse frequency. Pulses are to be considered as porous to the gas flow as is shown when we plot the pulse velocity versus the real gas flow rate, figure 5. 

The strength of flow is that it provides the most powerful and versatile mechanism of transport available for separative displacement. The weakness of flow—other than its nonselectivity—is its nonuniformity. For most flow systems, v varies widely from point to point in the flow space. The different us carry component molecules downstream at different rates, thus leading to the broadening of component zones. We must understand the fundamentals of flow in order to control this broadening while still enjoying the significant advantages of flow transport.

We note that Y/Y is a measure of the nonuniformity of flow experienced by a component in the system. It is a dimensionless constant reflecting the geometry of the flow space. It does not change with flowrate because, as noted in Section 4.4, all velocities in a given cross section subject to laminar flow maintain the same proportion to one another. Thus when flowrate increases, all individual velocities increase proportionately, as do 2 and A 5 ". The ratio remains constant. 

They withstand more pressure than other reactors due to the tubular geometry of the flow space. This allows working in the turbulent regime. 

In order to characterise the flow space within filling we will consider packing of equally sized spheres of diameter dP. A suitable parameter for the description of packing is the void fraction... 

With an accurate flow space or domain defined in terms of its geometry and a strategy for discretisation determined, it is necessary to select a suitable specific discretisation method before a problem can be solved. Having studied the field of...

The hydrodynamic diameters of microchannels usually range from 10 to 1000 rm. In such confined flowing spaces, the multiphase flow patterns of Newtonian fluids are more variable compared with the common bubbly or droplet flows in larger vessels and columns. The confined flowing channel first affects the shape of droplets therefore, the flow patterns of liquid/hquid dispersed systems are usually categorized as plug flow and droplet flow, as shown in Fig. 1A and B. Usually, the droplet flow has larger specific surface area, which is fit for the mass transfer enhancement process (Mary et al,... 

Similar to the edge filter in appearance, in that it has an array of disc-shaped components held on a central core, the stacked disc filter differs because the discs are actually hollow, with filter media over the faces of the disc. It employs individual discs, porous on both sides - that are stacked over a perforated inner tube - with intermediate spacing washers creating a flow space between each pair of discs.
