Flow‐regime transition and flow‐structure‐based scale‐up of Siemens reduction furnaces

Abstract Siemens furnaces are nonlinear CVD reactors in which flow regime evolves as rods grow, while clear scale‐up criteria remain lacking. In this work, flow experiments and simulations are combined to identify hydrodynamic mechanisms. Experiments show a transition from jet‐ca...
