Abstract
The influence of the reaction mixture feed rate in a tubular turbulent apparatus with a diffuser–confuser design and its geometric parameters on the fields of turbulent kinetic energy and its dissipation rate has been shown as a result of the physicochemical fluid dynamics modeling of the reaction mixture flow through an apparatus. The reaction mixture consists of toluene, butadiene and particles of the active sediment of TiCl4–Al(i-C4H9)3 catalytic system. It was shown that an increase in the values of the fields of turbulent kinetic energy and its dissipation rate leads to an increase in the degree of dispersion and specific surface area of the catalytically active sediment particles and to an increase of TiCl4–Al(i-C4H9)3 catalytic system activity in the process of obtaining low-molar-mass polybutadiene—a polymer component of sticky glue.
