Controlling transition flow in catalytic systems can be achieved through various strategies:
1. Adjusting Flow Rates: Managing the velocity of the fluid to stay within the desired flow regime. 2. Modifying Reactor Geometry: Designing reactor shapes and sizes that favor the desired flow characteristics. 3. Using Baffles and Inserts: Introducing obstacles that can promote turbulence or stabilize laminar flow as needed. 4. Surface Treatments: Altering the surface properties of catalysts to influence transition flow.
