Abstract

The purpose of this work is to numerically research benzene alkylation with ethylene over AlCl3 catalyst and assess a feasibility of the alkylation reactor mixing equipment reconstruction using methods of computational fluid dynamics. To evaluate the effectiveness, a simulation of the mixing chamber was developed using ABAQUS and FlowVision software systems. It allows solving the problems in fluid dynamics modelling of liquid and gas flows mixing. Different options of reactant input were considered.
