Abstract

Heat transfer, fluid flow and thermal diffusion phenomena in a horizontal cold-wall CVD reactor were investigated theoretically and experimentally. The flow visualization experiments revealed that a stable two dimensional flow pattern prevails in the He system over a wide range of Reynolds numbers, while the N2 system has a tendency to form a complex three dimensional flow structure in which transversal and longitudinal rolls were included. The calculated results of a two dimensional numerical model accurated represent the experimentally observed flow for the He system. Thermal diffusion phenomena in a cold-wall CVD reactor were elucidated successively by measuring the composition of SF6 as a simulated CVD source material. Through experiments, it was found that a compositional separation about 3 times larger was likely to be achieved in the He system, which has a larger value of ratio in molecular weight compared to the N2 system. Numerical results calculated using a thermal diffusion factor estimated from inlet gas composition agreed well with experimental results. Fluid flow and concentration profiles were changed dramatically under the various gravitational accelerations conditions.
