The pressure drop, flow distribution, and heat transfer characteristics of the heat exchanger are discussed.
From the simulation, the performance, pressure drop, flow field, and gas mole fractions inside the cell frame were studied.
The model (Macedonio et al., 2005) assumes a circular conduit and accounts for the transition between bubbly flow and drop flow after magma fragmentation.
The deformation of a drop flowing along the centre streamline of a four-roll mill (4RM) has been investigated.
The overall volumetric mass transfer coefficients of the reactive extraction, Kca, of both scale mixers were also similar at equal energy dissipation rate in the drop flow regime.
Both global quantities (pressure drop, flow rate ratio, total wall heat transfer) and local changes (velocity, temperature, humidity, pressure gradient, and wall shear stress) were numerically investigated.
Details of drop formation, drop flow patterns and jet evolution were monitored in real-time by an ultra-high-speed digital CCD (charge couple device) camera.
After reaching at constant saturations of water, oil and pressure, the pressure drop, flow rates of oil and water were measured to calculate the relative permeability by using calculated effective permeability and base permeability.
Using the CFD code Fluent®6.0, it is demonstrated that a low-pressure drop flow diffuser, positioned upstream of the microreactor, distributes reactants evenly in a flow range of 50 1000 cm3/min (STP) throughout all compartments.
The recent demand of compact and efficient design of shell-tube type heat exchangers requires comprehensive understanding of void fraction, heat transfer, pressure drop, flow-induced vibration and flow regime in the shell side.
