6.A model for a CSTR is developed that contains two differential equations (shown below). In this
model, the following variables are used:
CA= concentration of A leaving reactor
CAi= concentration of A entering reaction
Q= heat rate
Fi= flow rate
V= volume
UA= heat transfer coefficient x heat transfer area
= density
cp= heat capacity
EA= activation energy
k0= pre-exponential factor
Ti,T= inlet temperature and exit temperature
R= ideal gas constant
dCAdt=FiV(CAi-CA)-kexp(-EART)CA
dTdt=UA(T-Ti)+QVcP
For a state-space model:
a) List the state variables:
b) List the input variables:
