Abstrakt: The analysis of the internal structure of RVC foams (Reticulated Vitreous Carbon) skeleton carried out by computed microtomography, did not allow to unambiguously determine to what extent their structure is discontinuous. Therefore, for more...

Abstract: The paper presents estimation of the viscous and inertial friction components for structured catalyst carriers such as: sinusoidal short-channel structure, knitted wire gauze, ring-rosette structure. Calculations based on the experimental results...

Abstract: In order to intensify transport processes, short-channel structural fillings of chemical reactors operating in the laminar flow regime should be characterized by a developing velocity profile in the subsequent sections. The paper discusses...

Abstract: The paper presents flow resistance of a new type of catalytic carriers - streamlined structures. They are short-channel structures (short monoliths) of various channel cross-sectional shape. The innovation of the design is channel wall similar...

Abstract: Metal and ceramic solid foams were examined to determine axial dispersion for liquids (water and 45% glycerol solution) single phase flow; the results obtained for the packed bed of spheres were used for comparison. The influence of the liquid...

An analysis is presented of the irreversibility of flow and thermal phenomena in innovative streamlined structured packing of catalytic chemical reactors. The fundamental equations of irreversible thermodynamics defining entropy production as a result...

In this paper, we present the results of heat transfer studies on short-channel structured packing in chemical reactors. Heat transfer coefficients, streamlines, and fluid temperatures were determined using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). CFD simulations...

Exptl. studies were conducted on a new type of structured catalytic carrier, manufactured using 3D printing. Its design was inspired by fish gills, which are natural structures with high transport properties and a large sp. surface area, characteristics...

Monolithic structures of catalytic reactors offer low flow resistance, but their drawback is weak heat and mass transport. For transport intensification, innovative streamlined structures were designed, the walls of which are shaped like an airplane...

The paper presents research on a novel catalytic carrier, called “streamlined structure”. The carrier is a short-channel monolith, whose walls are shaped like an airfoil profile (airplane wing). The intention is heat transfer intensification...
