behaviour. Conversions for first order reactions are predicted in real reactors
and other parameters such as rate volume etc. of the reactors are also
accounted for. Combined reactor models are used to account for other orders
of reaction.
Course Objectives/Goals
At the end of the course, students should be able to:
Ability to use the design equations of the reactors to design and assess
the performance of ideal reactors in isothermal operation.
Compare ideal with real reactors and explain deviations from ideal
behaviour
Course Outlines
Module 1: Weeks 1-4
Combination of energy balance and design equations to solve nonisothermal operations of reactors in steady state.
