1、化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程 The Dispersion Model Choice of ModelsModels are useful for representing flow in real vessels, for scale up, and for diagnosing poor flow. We have different kinds of models depending on whether flow is close to plug, mixed, or somewhere in between. and deal primarily with small devi

2、ation from plug flow. There are two models for this: the dispersion model and the tanks-in-series model. Use the one that is comfortable for you. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程They are roughly equivalent. These models apply to turbulent flow in pipes, laminar flow in very long tubes, flow in packed beds, shaft k

3、ilns, long channels, screw conveyers, etc.For laminar flow in short tubes or laminar flow of viscous materials these models may not apply, and it may be that the parabolic velocity profile is the main cause of deviation from plug flow. We treat this situation, called the pure convection model, in .I

The pulse spreads as it passes through

5、 the vessel, and to characterize the spreading according to this model (see Fig. 13.1), we assume a diffusion-like process superimposed(添加) on plug flow. We call this dispersion or longitudinal (纵向的, 轴向的) dispersion to distinguish it from molecular diffusion. The dispersion coefficient D (m2/s) repr

6、esents this spreading process. Thus large D means rapid spreading of the tracer curve small D means slow spreading D = 0 means no spreading, hence plug flow化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.1 The spreading of tracer according to the dispersion model. 小小 结结 轴向分（扩散）模型轴向分（扩散）模型基本假定：基本假定：对于偏离了理想平推流的管式反应器，假设在主对

Figure 13.2 illustrates these terms. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.2 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Consider plug flow of a fluid, on top of which is superimposed some degree of backm

11、ixing, the magnitude of which is independent of position within the vessel. This condition implies that there exist no stagnant pockets and no gross(明显的) bypassing or short-circuiting of fluid in the vessel. This is called the dispersed plug flow model, or simply the dispersion model. Figure 13.3 sh

12、ows the conditions visualized(形象化地). Note that with varying intensities of this model should range from plug flow at one extreme to mixed flow at the other. As a result the reactor volume for this model will lie between those calculated for plug and mixed flow. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.3 Represent

13、ation of the dispersion (dispersed plug flow) model. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Since the mixing process involves a shuffling(搅乱) or redistribution of material either by slippage(滑动, 错动) or eddies(旋涡), and since this is repeated many, many times during the flow of fluid through the vessel we can consider thes

14、e disturbances(干扰, 骚动) to be statistical(统计学的) in nature, somewhat as in molecular diffusion. For molecular diffusion in the x-direction the governing differential equation is given by Ficks law:2 CCtx (4)2D化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程where D, the coefficient of molecular diffusion, is a parameter which unique

15、ly(唯一地) characterizes the process. In an analogous(类似的) manner we may consider all the contributions to intermixing of fluid in the x-direction to be described by a similar form of expression, or 2 CCtx2D (5)where the parameter D, which we call the longitudinal or axial dispersion coefficient, uniqu

16、ely characterizes the degree of backmixing during flow. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程We use the terms longitudinal (纵向的) and axial (轴向的) because we wish to distinguish mixing in the direction of flow from mixing in the lateral (横向的)or radial(径向的) direction, which is not our primary concern. These two quantities

17、 may be quite different in magnitude. For example, in streamline flow of fluids through pipes, axial mixing is mainly due to fluid velocity gradients, whereas radial mixing is due to molecular diffusion alone. 轴向分（扩散）模型的数学模型轴向分（扩散）模型的数学模型Cd xLuc0u()CC+dxxuuruA CDrCA(C+d x)xxrCuA (C+dx)xDrCAxruA CD()

For small extents of dispersion (if D/uL is small) the spreading tracer curve does no

Under these conditions the solution to Eq.6 is not difficult and gives the symmetrical(对称的) curve of Eq.7 shown in Figs.13.1 and 13.4.This represents family of gaussian curves, also called error

22、or normal curves.化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程211exp 4/2/CuLuL(7)DDThe equations representing this family are 223222231exp4/exp44/ or 12 or 2tuLuLLutuLLuVLtvuLtuLuEE1EED4D /EDDDD(8)mean of E curve化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.4 Relationship between D/uL and the dimensionless E curve for small extents of dispersion

23、, Eq.7. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Note that D/uL is the one parameter of this curve. Figure 13.4 shows a number of ways to evaluate this parameter from an experimental curve: by calculating its variance, by measuring its maximum height or its width at the point of inflection(拐点), or by finding that width whi

24、ch includes 68% of the area.Also note how the tracer spreads as it moves down the vessel. From the variance expression of Eq.8 we find that L 22curve tracerofwidth L or 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Fortunately, for small extents of dispersion numerous simplifications and approximations in the analysis of tracer

25、 curves are possible. First, the shape of the tracer curve is insensitive to the boundary condition imposed on the vessel, whether closed of open (see above Eq.11.1). So for both closed and open vessels Cpulse = E and Cstep = F . For a series of vessels the and of the individual vessels are additive

26、, thus, referring to Fig.13.5 we have t2(9) bababaoveralluLuLvVvVttt化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.5 Illustration of additivity of means and of variances of the E curves of vessels a,b,n.2223322 overallababLLuuDD (10)and 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程The additivity(可加性) of times is expected, but the additivity of va

27、riance is not generally expected. This is a useful property since it allows us to subtract for the distortion of the measured curve caused by input lines, long measuring leads, etc.This additivity property of variance also allows us to treat any one-shot tracer input, no matter what its shape, and t

28、o extract from it the variance of the E curve of the vessel. So, on referring to Fig.13.6, if we write for a one-shot input222outin (11)化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.6 Increase in variance is the same in both cases, or . 2222outin 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Aris (1959) has shown, for small extents of dispersion,

From such a comparison we find that th

This gives a nonsymmetrical

31、E curve.An additional complication(并发症) enters the picture for large D/uL: What happens right at the entrance and exit of the vessel strongly affects the shape of the tracer curve as well as the relationship between the parameters of the curve and D/uL.化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Let us consider two types of b

32、oundary conditions: either the flow is undisturbed(未受干扰) as it passes the entrance and exit boundaries (we call this the open b.c.), or you have plug flow outside the vessel up to the boundaries (we call this the closed b.c.). This leads to four combinations of boundary conditions, closed-closed, op

33、en-open, and mixed. Figure 13.7 illustrates the closed and open extremes, whose RTD curves are designated as Ecc and Eoo.化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Figure 13.7 Various boundary conditions used with the dispersion model.

For all other boundary conditions you do not get a proper RTD. In all cases you can eval

35、uate D/uL from the parameters of the tracer curves: however, each curve has its own mathematics. Let us look at the tracer curves for closed and for the open boundary conditions. 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程Closed Vessel. Here an analytic expression for the E curve is not available. However, we can construct t

It also happens to be the only physical situation (besides small D/uL) where the analytical expression for the E curve is not too complex. The results are given by the response cur

At large D/uL the curves differ more and mor

But be sure to use the right boundary conditions.22化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程(c) If the flow deviates greatly from plug (D/uL la

41、rge) chances are that the real vessel doesnt meet the assumption of the model (a lot of independent random fluctuations). Here it becomes questionable whether the model should even be used. I hesitate when D/uL 1。 (d) You must always ask whether the model should be used. You can always match values,

42、 but if the shape looks wrong, as shown in the accompanying sketches, dont use this model, use some other model.2化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程 (e) For large D/uL the literature is profuse and conflicting, primarily because of the unstated and unclear assumptions about what is happening at the vessel boundaries.

43、 The treatment of end additivity of variances is questionable. Because of all this we should be very careful in using the dispersion model where backmixing is large, particularly if the system is not closed.(f) We will not discuss the equations and curves for the open-closed or closed-open boundary

These can be found in Levenspiel (1996).化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程 化化 学学 反反 应应 工工 程程EXAMPLE 13.1 D/uL FROM A Cpulse CURVE On the assumption that the closed vessel of Example 11.1, , is well represented by the dispersion model, calculate the vessel dispersion number D/uL.
