3. For a first-order liquid-phase irreversible reaction,

(a) Show the Damkhler number (Da) in terms of 'space time for this reaction if Damkhler number is defined as the following equation. (4%)

- rA,0 V

Rate of reaction at entrance

Da =

FA.o

Entering flow rate of A

  1. Express the conversion rate of this reaction in a single CSTR in terms of 'Damkhler number'. (10%)
  2. Derive the conversion rate of this reaction in terms of "Damkhler number' if 5 equal-sized CSTRs connected in series with the same volumetric flowrate under the same operating temperature. (10%)
  3. Considering numerous equal-sized CSTRs connected in series, determine how many reactors are required to reach 80% conversion if (case I) Da = 1.0 and (case Il) Da = 0.1. (6%)
