摘要: Abstract Slurry reactors have attracted the attention of researchers over years due to its widespread applications and importance in various processes chemical biochemical industries. This article has been attempted study gas holdup (eg), bubble size (dvs), three-phase friction factor (fTPL), generated turbulent energy (CB), dispersion coefficient motion (Eb) velocity characteristic (k) an ejector-induced downflow slurry column within a range superficial gas, velocities particle diameter 0.04–0.14 m/s, 0.85 × 10−2–2.55 × 10−2 m/s 2.21–96.0 μm respectively. The effects these different operating variables on Sauter mean (dvs) mixing characteristics are investigated experimentally. A functional relationship between loss wettability liquid with solid surface (Ew) also developed. analyzed by drift flux model interpreted same based significant dimensionless groups. estimated as function concentration. present modified system may give insight into further understanding modeling flow industrial applications.
