Abstract
• Characterisation of flow and conversion behaviour using numerical simulation. • Parameter study including variations of reactor geometry and fluid properties. • Applicability test of existing design criteria for conventional fixed-bed reactors. • Novel design criterion based on reactor geometry, fluid properties and flow velocity.
