Five reactors linked by pipes are shown in Fig. P8.9. The rate of mass flow through each pipe is computed as the product of flow (Q) and concentration (c). At steady state, the mass flow into and out of each reactor must be equal. For example, for the first reactor, a mass balance can be written as 201C01 +231C3 = Q15C1 + Q12€1 Write mass balances for the remaining reactors in Fig. P8.9 and express the equations in matrix form. Then use MATLAB to solve for the concentrations in each reactor. = 6 201 Co=20 = 7 203 Cos = 50 FIGURE P8.9 2₁s=5 212 2₁1 = 3 225 = 1 223=2 Qs = 4 2s4=2 224 = 1 Q₁ = 6 244= 9 Five reactors linked by pipes are shown in Fig. P8.9.
