Heat Transfer Investigations in a Slurry Bubble Column: Quarterly Report for the Period July-September 1987

摘要

This report discusses fabrication and installation of the 10.8 cm internal diameter Plexiglas slurry bubble column as well as of the associated gas and slurry flow loops. The heat transfer probes together with its power supply system, and temperature measurement circuit as well as details of this facility and the results of some of the preliminary test runs completed to-date are described in this report. Substantial design and partial fabrication of the 30.5 cm diameter pyrex glass slurry bubble column has been completed, and many components required to complete the remaining parts of the system are under order. Review and collection of the literature dealing with the hydrodynamics and heat transfer in two- and three-phase slurry bubble columns has been initiated. (ERA citation 13:005568)
