Distributions of pressure and velocity in the main channels were studied in a radial flow cold model of a moving bed reactor, 500 mm in diameter, in four different gas flow modes, inward Z gas flow, inward II gas flow, outward Z gas flow, outward l l gas flow. It has been found that, in outward II gas flow mode, the axial non-uniformity of the gas is at a minimum. The following correlations are proposed for the momentum recovery factors K, and Kb:Pressure distributions in the main channels can be accurately predicted using K, and Kb.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
