Modeling Fouling Effects in LDPE Tubular Polymerization Reactors. 1. Fouling Thickness Determination

Fouling in a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) tubular polymerization reactor is caused by the polyethylene/ethylene mixture forming two phases inside the reactor. Some of the polymer-rich phase is deposited on the reactor's inside wall, which considerably reduces heat-transfer rates. At a given...
