摘要: A multi-tube air-lift loop reactor (MT-ALR) is presented in this paper. Based on the energy
conserva tion, a mathematical model describing the liquid circulation flow rate was
developed, which was determined by gas velocity, the cross areas of riser and downcomer,
gas hold-up and the local frictional loss coefficient. The experimen tal data indicate that
either increase of gas flow rate or reduction of the downcomer diameter contributes to
higher liquid circulation rate. The correlation between total and the local frictional loss
coefficients was also established. Effects of gas flowrate in two risers and diameter of
downcomer on the liquid circulation rate were examined. The value of total frictional loss
coefficient was measured as a function of the cross area of downcomer and independent of
the gas flow rate. The calculated results of liquid circulation rates agreed well with the
experimental data with an average relative error of 9.6%.
