Exercise 6.3: CSTR energy balance with multiple reactions Allyl chloride is to be produced in a 0.83ft3CSTR20 [20] Cl2+C3H6k1C3H5Cl+HClCl2+C3H6k2C3H6Cl2 The feed is a 4:1 molar ratio of propylene to chlorine and it enters at a feed rate of 0.85lbmol/hr,2.0atm of pressure, and 392F. The reactor pressure may be assumed constant. The rate constants have units of lbmol/(hrft3atm2) and are k1=2.06105expRT27200k2=11.7expRT6860 where T is in degrees Rankine and R is in Btu/(bmolR). The rate expressions are r1=k1PC3H6PCl2r2=k2PC3H6PCl2 The thermodynamic data for this reaction are listed in Table 6.11 [16]. The partial molar heat capacities can be calculated using CPj=Aj+BjT+CjT2+DjT3cal/molK (a) Compute the molar flowrates of Cl2,C3H5Cl and C3H6Cl2, and the reactor temperature for adiabatic operation. You need to use an algebraic equation solver for this problem, a reasonable first guess on the temperature is 1200R. (b) Now consider an approximate solution along the lines presented by Smith [20] in which the heat of reaction is computed at the inlet temperature and assumed constant. Compare the heat of reaction in Part 6.3a with the value at the inlet temperature, and comment on the differences in the molar flowrates and the temperatures in Parts 6.3a and 6.3b.
