Dynamic Simulation of Complex Reaction Schemes and Biochemical Applications in Stirred Tank Reactors with Respect to Imperfect Mixing

摘要

This paper presents a model of stirred tank reactors, which is able to solve the dynamic mass and energy balances on the basis of certain fluiddynamic simplifications. One possibility is to give a macroscopic flow field as an input, but it is more suitable to fit local distributions of velocities to the reactor model. To close the model, empirical knowledge for the required model parameters is included in form of empirical equations.
