Problems solved by technology

These devices are generally expensive and relatively cumbersome to operate. In addition, fluorescence technology and microparticle image velocimetry require adding tracer particles to the fluid to be measured for imaging. For some special media such as enhanced oxidation or high viscosity fluids, it is necessary to seek suitable tracer particles Relatively difficult, thus limiting the applicability of these measurement techniques

Embodiment 1

[0021] Observe the wetting process of the liquid relative to the falling film channel:

[0022] Such as figure 1 As shown, the falling film microreactor was fixed on a stereomicroscope (Smartzoom 5, Carl Zeiss , Germany) on the stage, adjust the microscope lens to the horizontal state, so that the collection light path vertically irradiates the falling film microchannel. ST, Beijing Spacecraft , China), set the liquid phase feed flow Q L = 15 ml / h, feed the test system, the falling film medium used is deionized water, and the refractive index at room temperature is 1.333; turn on the microscope, and record the liquid phase flowing out from the liquid distributor to the wetting process of the entire channel. The results show that: the liquid phase first wets the falling film channel and the side walls on both sides, and then the liquid phase evaporates rapidly at the side walls, and the liquid phase flows completely in the channel, as shown in Fig. figure 2 process ...
