Chemical Reactor Modeling closes the gap between Chemical Reaction Engineering and Fluid Mechanics. It presents the fundamentals of the single-fluid and multi-fluid models for the analysis of single- and multiphase reactive flows in chemical reactors with a chemical reactor engineering rather than mathematical bias. The book discusses numerical methods for solving the resulting equations as well as the interplay between physical and numerical modes. It is organized in 12 chapters combining theoretical aspects and practical applications and covers some of the recent research in several areas of…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Chemical Reactor Modeling closes the gap between Chemical Reaction Engineering and Fluid Mechanics. It presents the fundamentals of the single-fluid and multi-fluid models for the analysis of single- and multiphase reactive flows in chemical reactors with a chemical reactor engineering rather than mathematical bias. The book discusses numerical methods for solving the resulting equations as well as the interplay between physical and numerical modes. It is organized in 12 chapters combining theoretical aspects and practical applications and covers some of the recent research in several areas of chemical reactor engineering. This book contains a survey of the modern literature in the field of chemical reactor modeling.

The book is written by a Chemical Engineer for Chemical Process Engineers using the standard terminology of this community. It is intended for researchers and engineers who want to develop their own codes, or who are interested in a deeper insight into commercial CFD codes in order to derive consistent extensions and to overcome “black box” practice. It can also serve as a textbook and reference book for both students and practitioners.

Autorenporträt
Hugo Atle Jakobsen is currently serving as a Professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim, Norway. His main field of expertise is computational fluid dynamics applied to chemical reactor technology. After earning his Dr. Ing. in reactor modeling from the Norwegian Institute of Technology (NTH) in Trondheim, in 1993, he moved to Oslo to undertake research at  the Research and Development Department, Norwegian Meteorological Institute (DNMI) host for the Meteorological Synthesizing Centre - West, an UN/ECE topic centre on air pollution modeling. In 1997, he moved to the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim and was working as Associate Professor in the field of Reactor technology. In 2000 he was promoted to Professor at NTNU. His research interests lie at the interface of numerical methods, multiphase fluid dynamics, multiphase reactive flows, combined multifluid-population balance modeling, experimental validation and chemical reactor technology. Prof Jakobsen has published more than 100 peer-reviewed papers in international journals.
