Efficiency Improvement of a Tubular Jet Reactor by Mixing Increase
A logical and progressive method is proposed to modify and increase the performance of chemical reactors where the main inner process is mixing. This method includes global analysis based on mixing visualization, followed by local value measurements. This article reports the case of an axisymmetrical tubular jet mixer : turbulent mixing is speeded up by means of a swirling jet.
