Abstract
The Performance of a Multiphase Flow Packed-Bed Reactor Was Evaluated by a Mixing-Cell Network Model in Which the Cell-Scale Flow Field Information Was Provided by Multifluid CFD Modeling. Such a Sequentially Combined Modeling Approach Was Able to Show the Heterogeneity of Liquid Species Conversion in a Trickle-Bed Reactor that Has Been Confirmed by in Situ Magnetic Resonance Experiments. 1 a Conventional Plug Flow Model (PFM) and Axial Dispersion Model (ADM) Showed Either overpredicted or Underpredicted Conversion Compared with the Conversion Computed from the CFD-Cell Network Model. Preliminary Case Study Has Shown the Ability of the CFD-Cell Network Model in Assessing the Impact of Flow Distribution on the Trickle-Bed Reactor Performance, which is a Great Help to Trickle-Bed Reactor Design and Diagnosis. © 2005 American Chemical Society.
