Hydrodynamic and heat transfer modeling of polydisperse fluidized bed olefin polymerization reactors
A computational fluid dynamics model was coupled with population balance model (CFD-PBM) to investigate hydrodynamic and heat transfer phenomena in an ethylene polymerization reactor. A gas-solid multiphase flow was developed based on the Eulerian-Eulerian approach. The polymer particle size distrib...
