| Research Abstract |
Experiments and theoretical analyzes were carried out on the dynamic characteristics of heat and mass transfer during adsorption and desorption processes in a packed bed type silica gel-A/steam adsorber. Following results were obtained from the experiments.
1. An adsorption isotherm was determined for this adsorbent/adsorbate pair.
2. There was no difference in the dynamic behavior of heat transfer for packed beds of different adsorbent particle diameter, and the time required to reach the eguilibrium state in the process became larger with the thickness of the packed bed layr.
3. The effective thermal conductivity of packed bed was measured and there was found no difference in measured values for the beds of different particle diameter.
Theoretical analyzes were performed for heat and mass transfer in the adsorbent bed, based on the physical model in which several mechanisms in both the adsobate fluid and particle solid phases are taken into consideration. Following results were obtained.
1. The present analytical model was found to predict well the dynamic behavior of the silica gel/steam adsorber obtained in the experiments.
2. Both the effects of the resistance to the heat transfer from the fluid to the particle and that to the diffusion of adsorbate in the particle were found to be very small.
3. Thermal conduction in the solid particle was confirmed to play a dominant role in the dynamics of heat and mass transfer in adsorbent packed bed.
