Lecture

Pressure Drop in Packed Pipes

Description

This lecture covers the application of the CRE algorithm to second-order reactions in packed bed reactors, examining the impact of pressure drop on conversion and catalyst weight. It also explores the relationship between particle diameter and pressure drop, highlighting the tradeoff between reactivity and pressure drop. The Ergun equation is discussed for calculating pressure drop in packed porous beds, along with the algorithm for reactor analysis in gas-phase reactions.
