Heat and mass transfer in confined jet plasma reactor with peripheral vortex flow

Abstract

A fundamentally new solution for the creation of a peripheral vortex flow is proposed: by the means of rotation of a rotor placed in a reactor. Experimental studies have been performed based on which the distributions of the heat fluxes to the wall of the plasma reactor were obtained by creating a vortex flow by a rotating rotor. It is established that the presence of a vortex flow leads to a significant change in the distribution of heat and mass flow to the reactor wall. The presence of a vortex flow leads to a change in the distribution of the isotherms in the mixing zone of the high-temperature paraxial flow with the gaseous medium of the reactor.
