Reactor temperature spike, cooling issue
Thread Content
What happens if the reactor experiences a temperature spike and cooling down too quickly?
Generally, if there are no major issues with the high-pressure flanges, then nothing else should be a problem; it might cause some damage to the material of the reactor, though. Let’s see what other masters have to say.
1. Leakage at the flanges in the high-temperature areas. 2. The dissolved hydrogen in the reactor wall cannot be released. 3. There is also material that cannot be removed in a timely manner; could the catalyst be affected as well?
To stop the reaction quickly, Du Feiwen must first lower the temperature. As for the consequences, many have been mentioned above; it’s best not to fly in warm weather.
It’s already at flying temperature; what does the cooling rate matter? As long as there’s no leakage, that’s fine
In the case of excessive temperature, there’s no need to worry about anything else – just carry out emergency pressure relief. Local leaks may occur; if hydrogen atoms in the austenitic stainless steel used in hydrogenation units don’t have time to dissipate, it could affect the strength of the steel and lead to hydrogen embrittlement
The catalyst can also accumulate carbon locally, and hot spots may arise during restart
