Abstract:The reverse-flow packed-bed reactor has been proposed for use in the chemical process industries because of its ability to Ž store thermal energy within the bed Boreskov and Matros, . 1983 . During periods of high fuel concentration, large thermal spikes may form within the reactor upon flow reversal. If the duration of high fuel concentration is large, thermal runaway may result since the spikes grow in magnitude upon each other. A new scheme is proposed here which strategically reduces the flow reversal time… Show more
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.
