RTD Packed Bed Reactor Apparatus
Product Code: SUK-SCHOOL-SSLAB-N9000032
Description & Specifications
RTD Packed Bed Reactor Apparatus
Technical Specification
The tracer technique, the most widely used method for the study of axial
dispersion. The setup consists of a glass column packed with Rasching
Rings and one feed tank. In stimulus-response experimentation, we
perturb the system using pulse input of tracer and then see how the
system reacts or responds to this stimulus. The flow rate can be
adjusted by operating the needle valve provided on Rotameter.
Axial diffusion and dispersion of fluid in packed beds are important for
design and operation of separation equipment and Chemicals reactors.
Water is fed to the reactor through a liquid distributor, fitted at the
bottom of the column. Rotameter is provided to measure the flow of
water.
The analysis of the response gives the desired information about the
system. Samples can be taken periodically from the top outlet of the
reactor.
For understanding the R.T.D. characteristics, a special arrangement to
inject a tracer into the lower end of the reactor, using a syringe, is
provided.
Pressure Regulator & Pressure Gauge are fitted in the compressed air line.
