Detailed knowledge of interstitial flow in the void space of such packed-bed reactors is essential for understanding the heat and mass transfer characteristics. In this paper, fluid flow through the array of spheres was studied using the unit-cell approach, in which different periodically repeating arrangements of particles such as simple cubical, 1-D rhombohedral, 3-D rhombohedral, and face-centered cubical geometries were considered. Single-phase flow through these geometries was simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The model was first validated by comparing predicted results with published experimental and computational results. The validated model was further used to study the effect of particle arrangement/orientation on velocity distribution and heat transfer characteristics. The simulated results were also used to understand and to quantify, relative contributions of surface drag and form drag in overall resistance to the flow through packed-bed reactors. The model and the results presented here would be useful in elucidating the role of microscopic flow structure on mixing and other transport processes occurring in packed-bed reactors.

Reaction engineering is useful for analysis of reactions, identifying rate-limiting steps, determining overall rates, selection of reactor configuration and design and scale-up of reactors. Reaction engineering also provides useful insights into catalytic cycles and provides clues for improving catalyst systems. It essentially includes all the activities necessary to evolve best possible hardware and operating protocol for the reactor to carry out the desired transformation of raw materials (or reactants) into value-added products. This chapter provides an overview of reaction engineering aspects of catalytic processes.</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3></record></records></xml>
