(b) From Q.3(a) it is evident that, when
f(P), an nth order density () variation
results in a pressure variation of order
(n+1). To help you understand, a
sample demonstration of density and
pressure variation along vertical height of
a chemical reactor is shown in the figure
at right, where a reaction causes fluid
density to vary in different ways in
different reactor chambers (A,B,C,D,E).
(Carefully check out the order of and P
variations). Here, A=E>C, and
varies linearly in both chamber B and D.
(iv) If the reactor is used for another reaction that causes the density of the fluid inside the reactor
chambers to vary in a different way (as shown in the figure below), then complete the pressure
variation plot by clearly showing the orders of pressure variation in each reactor chamber. Assume
pressure at the top of chamber E as zero. [10]
Hint: Start from top-left corner of the plot, remember pressure never decreases as we move down
along - ve z direction.
