Plug Flow Reactor (Coiled Tube Type) Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-TWL-11782
Quick Answer: The Plug Flow Reactor (Coiled Tube Type) is a helical coil tube reactor for studying a non-catalytic homogeneous reaction under isothermal conditions. Two feed tanks supply the reactants, which enter at the bottom of the coil and leave at the top for sampling.

Key Features
Helical coil tube reactor.
Two feed tanks with a magnetic drive pump for feed circulation.
Rotameters with needle valves for each reactant flow.
Reactants enter at the lower end; samples collected where they leave the top of the coil.
Coil geometry adds turbulence and secondary flow.
About This Product
In an ideal plug flow reactor there is no mixing along the direction of flow and complete mixing across it, so concentration changes along the length but not radially. In a coil, the frequent change of direction and the secondary flow add turbulence, so a higher reaction rate constant is expected in this coiled tube type. Samples drawn at the top outlet are analysed to follow the reaction. Colleges and TVET centres in Estonia, Barbados, North Macedonia, Jamaica, Cambodia and Mongolia can source the Plug Flow Reactor (Coiled Tube Type) from Educational Lab Equipments.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a higher rate constant expected in the coiled tube?
Turbulence is introduced by the frequent change in flow direction and by secondary flow in the coil, so a higher value of the reaction rate constant is expected in the coil tube type reactor.
How are reactant flows controlled?
Each reactant has its own rotameter, and the flow is adjusted with the needle valve on that rotameter; a magnetic drive pump circulates the feed.
