Application of Orthogonal Collocation Method to Fluidised Bed Electrochemical Reactor Models

Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

mathematical model is presented to describe the behaviour of a three-dimensional fluidized bed electrode operating under the condition of electron transfer. The model is simulated numerically by applying orthogonal collocation method to calculate the electric potential distribution in the particulate and liquid phases, and the overpotential within the electrochemical reactor. The principal results are the effects of the constant current operation, bed width and bed porosity on the system behaviour. The developed model is adequate to describe the behaviour of these types of electrochemical reactors and the results obtained are in agreement with existing measured values [1].
