PARAMETRIC SENSITIVITY IN FIXED BED REACTOR WITH CO-CURRENT COOLING

摘要

1 INTRODUCTIONWhen an exothermic reaction is carried out in a fixed bed reactor,there exists an axialtemperature profile exhibiting a maximum,known as the hot spot.In certain regions ofthe parametric sensitivity,the hot spot temperature undergoes very large increases forsmall changes in one or more inlet parameters,and this phenomenon is called runawayand the corresponding inlet condition is known as the critical.The reactor will be outof controlled beyond this condition and brings about a bad influence on process con-
