STUDIES ON UNIFORM VELOCITY DISTRIBUTION IN CYLINDRICAL VESSELS WITH ANNULAR PACKED-BED

The uniform distribution of radial velocities of flow is of great importance for a cylindrical vessel with annular packed-bed (CVAPB). In this paper, a theoretical analysis for producing a uniform radial velocity distribution within a vessel is presented and a design method is established for a specially designed conical chock (SDCC). A differential equation for determining the contour size of SDCC is derived. Experimental verification is performed in a test model of CVAPB. The results show that the axial distribution of differential pressures across the packed-bed become uniform for CVAPB with SDCC and the uniformity of radial velocity is improved.
