Abstract
This paper presents a numerical study on heat and mass transfer in the microwave-assisted and conventional packed bed reactors with an irreversible first-order endothermic chemical reaction. The numerical simulations have been carried out using one-dimensional heterogeneous reactor models for the both reactors. The obtained results have been compared applying the criterion of the same electrical powers utilized in the reactors. The effects of the inlet gas temperature and microwave power, gas velocity, bed porosity and the heat of reaction on performance of the packed bed reactors have been presented.
