Multi-tube palladium membrane dehydrogenation

Key words CFD model, membrane reactor, palladium membrane, single tube, multi-tube, dehydrogenation, hydrogen. 

Similarly to the single-tube type, a CFD model for analysing and designing a multi-tube type of palladium membrane reactor will be developed, where the three-dimensional mass and heat transfer for the dehydrogenation of cyclohexane occurring in the catalyst-packed bed is taken into account (Mimura et al, 2010b).
