Summary: | A method of calculating the temperature distribution in reaction devices using electromagnetic radiation in the UHF range as the energy source to realize the reaction is presented. It is shown that when carrying out catalytic reactions, the electromagnetic radiation absorbed by the substance of the catalyst creates volumetric heat sources in the catalyst the energy of which is transmitted to the reaction mixture in the gas phase through processes of heat exchange. The technological operating conditions of electrodynamic reactors in which a uniform temperature fi eld needed to perform chemical transformations is created are determined. A comparison of the computed and experimental data for the catalytic reactions of dehydration of butenes is carried out and it is shown that the proposed mathematical model supplies a sufficiently precise description of the actually occurring processes. |
