Answer:
V1=5<u>ft3</u>
<u>V2=2ft3</u>
n=1.377
Explanation:
PART A:
the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state
V=volume
v=especific volume
m=mass
V=mv
state 1
V1=m.v1
V1=4lb*1.25ft3/lb=5<u>ft3</u>
state 2
V2=m.v2
V2=4lb*0.5ft3/lb= <u> 2ft3</u>
PART B:
since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2
P1V1^n=P2V2^n
P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n
ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)
n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)
n=ln(15/53)/ ln (2/5)
n=1.377
Answer:
The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.
Xₚբᵣ = 0.632
X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5
Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ
Explanation:
From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction
Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is
kτ = (X)/(1 - X)
k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day
τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀
V = volume of reactor = 280 m³
F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day
X = conversion
k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)
0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)
1 = X/(1 - X)
X = 1 - X
2X = 1
X = 1/2 = 0.5
For the PFR
Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by
kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]
The parameters are the same as above,
0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)
1 = In (1/(1-X))
e = 1/(1 - X)
2.718 = 1/(1 - X)
1 - X = 1/2.718
1 - X = 0.3679
X = 1 - 0.3679
X = 0.632
The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.
