Abstract


The design and the technological parameters of the disk nozzle and circulation reactor for biodiesel production are established. The basis of the research is to determine the effective length of the emulsion flow in turbulent regime with minimal energy consumption. The effective length of the emulsion flow was determined on the basis of determination of the axial velocity in the flow sections at different distances from the nozzle. The value of the average axial velocity was carried out using the principle of conservation of the kinetic energy of the flow with the determination of the kinetic energy of the annular elements of the emulsion flow at the beginning and at the end of the flow. To conduct the experimental studies of changes in the emulsion flow rate, a specially designed plant was used, which consisted of a disk nozzle, a working capacity and a hydroelectric station. The conducted research allowed to coordinate the design and the technological parameters of the circulation reactor for high-quality biodiesel production with minimal energy consumption.
