摘要: Understanding the interaction between a fluid and a solid phase is of fundamental importance to the design of an adsorption process.Because the heat effects associated with adsorption are comparatively large,the as-sumption of isothermal behavior is a valid approximation only when uptake rates are relatively slow.In this article,we propose to determine when it is needed to choose the isothermal or non-isothermal assumption according to two physical parameters α (ratio convection/capacity) and β(quantity of energy/capacity) .The proposed problem is solved by a mathematical method in the Laplace domain.When α→∞ (infinitely high heat transfer coefficient) or β→0 (infinitely large heat capacity),the limiting case is isothermal.When the diffusion is rapid (α<10) the kinetics of sorption is controlled entirely by heat transfer.If the adsorption process is to be used as a heat pump,it shall be represented by an isotherm model withαandβas high as possible.
