I am trying to look at correlations between CO combustible gas sensor readings and other combustibles as mentioned in the title. Does anyone know where online I may be able to find the heats of combustion of various mercaptans and CO and H2?
Unfortunately, I do not have access to these kinds of programs where I am, and my system is far more complicated than would allow me to calculate these things on my own. I'm pretty much on a testing schedule, where I can change one thing, see how it affects the outputs, then change it again...
I'm working in a pulp and paper operation, and we have a set of disk thickeners bringing pulp from about one to two percent consistency up to eight or nine percent. There is very little control over the feed stock consistency. We are trying to increase consistency to at least 10%, possibly 11...
I am currently trying to put together an experimental plan for increasing pulp consistency coming from a disk thickener. Currently feed is between 1 and 2 percent, and exiting slurry is about 8 to 9 percent. Does anyone have any suggestions of what has worked for them, or any general changes...

Sorry, let me clarify. The problem of uneven buildup inside the reactor can be solved by removing the turbulence in the inlet. This is why I am working to find ways to remove turbulence.
I am still looking for more ideas, but for anyone who may find themselves in a similar situation, I have found another product in addition to the Cheng Rotation Vane, called the VOREL 90 degree elbow, which can be found at:

To m777182,
I am curious to hear why a mechanical engineer would not be inclined to use your solution of an elliptical cross-section at the center of the elbow.
If you were asking me that question, it is just a standard elbow, but there is not sufficient space to run a long enough length of straight pipe between the elbow and the inlet so I am looking for other ways to even out the velocity profile.
The gas is entering a decomposer unit where it becomes CO and solid matter. The inlet is gas cooled to prevent buildup and the inlet gas is at a low enough temperature not to build up inside the pipe. I am looking for a number of different models of those turning vanes, or alternately some...
It's textbook material that black bodies radiate the most heat. Painting a unit with silver paint (not any special coating) is enough to significantly reduce heat loss.
I am currently looking at the gas flow into the top of a large vertical cylinder. There is an elbow in the pipe directly before the inlet. Because of the turbulent flow produced as the gas goes around the bend, uneven buildup is accumulating in the cylinder. Does anyone have any suggestions...
