(1) Consider a temperature controlled, continuous flow stirred-tank reactor with a single first order exothermic chemical reaction. The tank is temperature controlled with a cooling coil.
Use the following symbols:
The flow of reactant solution into the tank is q and flow rate of product solution out of the tank is also q;
The tank volume is V;
The overall heat transfer coefficient is Uo;
The heat transfer area is A;
The specific heat of the reactant solution is Cp;
The initial concentration of A is CAO and B is 0 ;
The solution density is ;
The heat is reaction is HR;
The coolant rate is w.
The reaction is
AB
r=kCA where k=k0e-ERT
(a) Develop a material balance equation for the tank of volume V;
(b) Develop an energy balance in terms of Uo with a heat transfer area A and specific heat Cp;
(c) Write the two equations from part (a) and (b) in deviation variable form;
(d) Write the coefficients of the two equations from part (c) in terms of a11,a12, etc;
(e) Write the two equations from part (c), as defined in part (d), in state-space form;
(f) Solve for the transfer function,
CA'TC'
(g) Find the poles (eigenvalues) for this system, in terms of your coefficients from part (f).
