Özet
The present chapter provides an overview of several numerical techniques that can be used to solve model equations of ordinary and partial differential type, both of which are frequently encountered in multiphase catalytic reactor analysis and design. Brief theories of the ordinary differential equation solution methods are provided. The techniques and software involved in the numerical solution of partial differential equation sets, which allow accurate prediction of nonreactive and reactive transport phenomena in conventional and nonconventional geometries, are explained briefly. The chapter is concluded with two case studies that demonstrate the application of numerical solution techniques in modeling and simulation of hydrocarbon- to-hydrogen conversions in catalytic packed-bed and heat-exchange integrated microchannel reactors.
