How to choose the power of thermal oil reactor electric heater?

The reactor needs to be heated, and the selection of the power of the heat transfer oil furnace needs to consider several factors, including the volume of the reactor, the specific heat capacity of the material, the initial temperature of the material, the heating time, and the final temperature required.

1. Working principle of thermal oil reactor electric heater: thermal oil reactor electric heater converts electric energy into heat energy through electric heating element, and uses heat conduction oil as heat transfer medium for circulation heating.

2. Parameters of materials and heat transfer oil: When calculating power, it is necessary to know the mass and specific heat capacity of materials, as well as the specific heat capacity and density of heat transfer oil. For example, if the material is metallic aluminum powder, its specific heat capacity and density are 0.22 kcal/kg·℃ and 1400 kg/m³, respectively, and the specific heat capacity and density of thermal oil may be 0.5 kcal/kg·℃ and 850 kg/m³, respectively.

3. Safety and efficiency: When choosing a thermal oil furnace, its safety characteristics and thermal efficiency should also be considered. For example, some thermal oil furnaces have multiple safety protections, such as overtemperature protection and motor overload protection.

4. Special requirements: If the reactor material belongs to class A chemicals, it is necessary to consider the explosion-proof of the whole machine, which will affect the design and selection of the thermal oil reactor electric heater.

5. Temperature control accuracy: For applications requiring high precision temperature control, a thermal oil furnace with PID control function should be selected, and the temperature control accuracy can reach ±1℃.

6. Selection of heating medium: thermal oil heater can provide high temperature under low operating pressure, and has the characteristics of fast heating speed and high heat transfer efficiency.
