SOLVE THIS USING PYTHON: CSTR with multiple steady states
The elementary liquid phase reaction:
A B
occurs in a jacketed CSTR Species A and inert I are fed to the reactor in equimolar
amounts. The molar feed rate of A is molmin
Information:
cPI calmol deg C cPA cPB calmol deg C
UA calmin deg CH R calmol
k x min at K Ta K
Ea calmol Ktau min
a What is the reactor temperature at a feed temperature of K
b Plot the reactor temperature as a function of the feed temperature.
c Suppose that you begin with a feed temperature of K which you slowly
increase. What inlet temperature must the reactor be heated before the reactor
operates at a high conversion? What are the corresponding temperature and
conversion of the fluid in the CSTR just above this inlet temperature?
d Suppose that the inlet fluid is now heated deg C above the temperature in part c
and is cooled by deg C where it remains. What will be the conversion?
e What is the feed temperature which will cause extinction for this reaction
system?
