Chapter 11: Nonisothermal Reactor Design: The Steady State Energy Balance and Adiabatic PFR Applications

Plot of XEB and XMB versus T

Second Order Reaction Carried Out Adiabatically in a CSTR
Our plot of XEB and XMB shows that our steady state operating point will be at:

X = 0.87 and T = 387 K

 

Our corresponding Polymath program looks like this:

NOTE: Our use of d(T)/d(t)=2 in the above program is merely a way for us to generate a range of temperatures as we plot conversion as a function of temperature.
