Abstract
Periodic open cellular structures (POCS) are additively manufactured supports for heterogeneous catalysts in the field of chemical reaction engineering. Constructed from a repeated unit cell, POCS offer excellent heat transport characteristics due to heat conduction in the continuous solid matrix. However, when inserted into tubular reactors, a loose fit between structure and tube wall results. This considerably hinders heat transfer across the wall. The novel POCS concept presented in this work aims at an intensified wall heat transfer by utilizing a reentrant structure design to ensure auxetic behavior. If the POCS is made of shape memory alloy, it can recover its original shape. Combining these two effects with an initial radial oversize, an interference fit with the tube is established. This contribution comprises the geometric description of reentrant POCS and heat conduction simulations for characterization of the effective heat conductivity, yielding scaling correlations dependent on geometric parameters. Moreover, the effective radial heat conductivity of POCS in cylindrical shape is explicitly investigated. The influencing factor identified is the ratio of tube diameter and cell size: while the ratio increases, the effective radial heat conductivity decreases, but remains well above the effective heat conductivity of the unit cell.
