What Techniques are Used to Study Transitional Flow?
Several techniques are employed to study transitional flow in catalysis. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool that allows researchers to simulate and visualize flow patterns within reactors. Experimental methods such as Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) are also used to measure flow velocities and turbulence characteristics. These techniques provide detailed insights into the flow dynamics and help in understanding the impact of transitional flow on catalytic performance.
