Head kinetics

Publications concerning the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis are also listed under the heading kinetics of hydrogenation - of carbon monoxide (Fig. 41). [Pg.69]

The Cannon-Fenske viscometer (Fig. 24b) is excellent for general use. A long capillary and small upper reservoir result in a small kinetic energy correction the large diameter of the lower reservoir minimises head errors. Because the upper and lower bulbs He on the same vertical axis, variations in the head are minimal even if the viscometer is used in positions that are not perfecdy vertical. A reverse-flow Cannon-Fen ske viscometer is used for opaque hquids. In this type of viscometer the Hquid flows upward past the timing marks, rather than downward as in the normal direct-flow instmment. Thus the position of the meniscus is not obscured by the film of Hquid on the glass wall. [Pg.181]

The calculation of the overall stage efficiency must also include losses encountered in the diffuser. Thus, the overall actual adiabatic head attained will be the actual adiabatic head of the impeller minus the head losses encountered in the diffuser from wake caused by the impeller blade the loss of part of the kinetic head at the exit of the diffuser (A(/ed), and the loss of head from frictional forces (A(/osf) encountered in the vaned or vaneless diffuser space... [Pg.250]

The change in static head in the rotor is equal to the change in relative kinetic energy ... [Pg.295]

Volume 1 explains that pumps ean be classified as either positive-displacement or kinetie. The same is true for compressors. In a positive displacement compressor the gas is transported from low pressure to high pressure in a device that reduces its volume and thus inereases its pressure. The most common type of positive displacement eompressors are reeiprocating and rotary (serew or vane) just as was the ease for pumps. Kinetic compressors impart a veloeity head to the gas, which is then converted to a pressure head in accordance with Bernoulli s Law as the gas is slowed down to the velocity in the discharge line. Just as was the case with pumps, centrifugal compressors are the only form of kinetic compressor commonly used. [Pg.255]

The kinetics of alkaline hydrolysis of phenyl cinnamate were studied at 25°C, in solutions containing 0.8% acetonitrile ionic strength, 0.3 M initial ester, 8.19 X 10- M reaction followed spectrophotometrically in 5-cm cells at 295 nm. For studies at three pH values, these absorbance data were obtained. The pH was established with sodium hydroxide of the normality specified in the heading of the table (as titrimetrically determined). [Pg.55]

Total Head the pressure available at the discharge of a pump as a result of the change of mechanical input energy into kinetic and potential energy. This represents the total energy given to the liquid by the pump. Head, previously known as total dynamic head, is expressed as feet of fluid being pumped. [Pg.180]

Velocity head is the kinetic energy of a liquid as a result of its motion at some velocity, v. It is the equivalent head... [Pg.187]

The impeller (wheel) of the centrifugal compressor imparts kinetic energy to the gas by increasing the gas velocity through the rotation of the impeller. A static pressure rise in the impeller comes from part of this energy, and the balance is converted to velocity head, which in turn converts to additional pressure rise in the compressor wheel assembly. (See Figures 12-43, 12-44B, 12-461, and 12-47.)... [Pg.480]

The kinetic energy is a function of the square of the velocity thus, the head produced by the rotating impeller is directly proportional to the square of the tip speed of the impeller. Then, ... [Pg.480]

At all points in a system, the static pressure is always equal to the original static pressure less any velocity head at a specific point in the system and less the friction head required to reach that point. Since both the velocity head and friction head represent energy and energy cannot be destroyed, the sum of the static head, the velocity head, and the friction head at any point in the system must add up to the original static head. This is known as Bernoulli s principal, which states For the horizontal flow of fluids through a tube, the sum of the pressure and the kinetic energy per unit volume of the fluid is constant. This principle governs the relationship of the static and dynamic factors in hydraulic systems. [Pg.592]

The rate constants for benzoyloxy and phenyl radicals adding to monomer are high (> KF M-1 s for S at 60 CC - Table 3.7). In these circumstances primary radical termination should have little importance under normal polymerization conditions. Some kinetic studies indicating substantial primary radical termination during S polymerization may need to be re-evaluated in this light.161 Secondary benzoate end groups in PS with BPO initiator may arise by head addition or transfer to initiator (Section 8.2.1). [Pg.127]

Rigo e.t al,6j were the first to propose that head addition does occur but is immediately followed by a 1,2-chlorine atom shift. The viability of 1,2-chlorine atom shifts is well established in model studies and theoretical calculations.64 Experimental support for this occurring during VC polymerization has been provided by NMR studies on reduced PVC /lfl Starnes et a/.61 proposed that head addition is followed by one or two 1,2-chlorine atom shifts to give chloromethyl or dichloroethyl branch structures respectively (Scheme 4.8). There also is kinetic data to support this hypothesis. [Pg.179]

Starnes et al.hl have also suggested that the head adduct may undergo p-scission to eliminate a chlorine atom which in turn adds VC to initiate a new polymer chain. Kinetic data suggest that the chlorine atom does not have discrete existence. This addition-elimination process is proposed to he the principal mechanism for transfer to monomer during VC polymerization and it accounts for the reaction being much more important than in other polymerizations. The reaction gives rise to terminal chloroallyl and 1,2-dichlorocthyl groups as shown in Scheme 4.8. [Pg.180]

The experimental and theoretical work reported in the literature will be reviewed for each of the five major types of ga s-liquid-particle operation under the headings Mass transfer across gas-liquid interface mass transfer across liquid-solid interface holdup and axial dispersion of gas phase holdup and axial dispersion of liquid phase heat transfer reaction kinetics. [Pg.90]
