Abstract

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown in a horizontal reactor by chemical vapor deposition, and it was found in the experiments that different heating temperatures and the position of the porcelain boat affect the morphology and yield of CNTs. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software is used to simulate the gas flow field distribution in the horizontal reactor under different operating parameters, and the results revealed that the gas flow in the horizontal reactor was advancing with vortex, and this gas circulation is induced by the difference in density due to the existence of temperature difference between the gas streams. As the heating temperature and nitrogen gas velocity increase, this vortex distorts the laminar flow, which in turn weakens the growth of CNTs.

水平反应器中碳纳米管生长过程中气体流场分布的实验与模拟

通过化学气相沉积法在水平反应器中生长碳纳米管（CNTs），实验发现不同的加热温度和瓷舟位置会影响CNTs的形态和产量。利用计算流体动力学（CFD）软件模拟了不同操作参数下水平反应器中的气体流场分布，结果发现水平反应器中的气体流动呈涡流推进，这种气体循环是由于气流之间存在温差导致密度不同而引起的。随着加热温度和氮气速度的增加，这种漩涡会扭曲层流，进而削弱 CNT 的生长。
