Abstract

The invention discloses a reaction cavity and a multi-stage series micro-channel reactor. The reaction cavity comprises a water-drop-shaped cavity shell and a built-in octopus-like shunting baffle, and a four-section type mixing flow channel is formed between the water-drop-shaped cavity shell and the built-in octopus-like shunting baffle; in the collision shearing section, fluid at a feeding hole impacts the head of the baffle at a high speed to realize forced shunting and primary shearing; according to the deceleration recombination section, a waist expansion flow channel reduces the flow speed and promotes fluid recombination and interface fusion. In the acceleration section, narrow channels between tentacles extrude and accelerate the fluid to enhance permeation and mixing; and in the mixing section, vortex breaking sharp corners are arranged at the tail parts of the baffles to eliminate vortexes and guide the vortexes to a discharge port. The multi-stage reactor is composed of a three-split-flow inlet unit, N reaction cavities connected in series and an outlet unit, and reverse parallel arrangement is achieved through a U-shaped pipe. Except for the reaction cavity, the interior of the reactor is of a solid structure, and the three-flow-dividing inlet adopts the design that a central pipeline is embedded into a peripheral pipeline, so that graded feeding control is realized. The structure has the characteristics of efficient microcosmic forced mixing and low flow resistance.
