P8-26B

(Position of reaction front) Using the computer program (or a slight variation
thereof) given in Example 8-10, determine the effect on the temperature and
conversion profiles of varying the inlet temperature when the reaction is c'anied out
adiabatically. In particular, study the effect of the inlet temperature on the position
of the reaction front (i.e., the position where the temperature rises very steeply).
Jawaban
Dengan menggunakan ms.excel, kita dapat melakukan simulasi pengaruh
temperatur pada inlet terhadap konversi dan panjang reaktor pada kondisi
adiabatik. Beberapa informasi untuk
penyelesai masalah ini didapatkan dari
example 8-10 diantaranya

Cp SO2 = 12.385
Cp O2 = 7.987
Cp SO3 = 17.235
Cp N2 = 7.42
dH (800) = -42471 Btu/lm mol
SO2
dH (T0) = -42321
alpha = -1.563
beta = 0.00262
gamma = -0.000000738
ya0 = 0.11

yb0 = 0.1
yc0 = 0
yi0 = 0.79
R = 1.978
P0 = 2 atm
Pa0 = ya0 * P0 = 0.11 * 2 =
0.22 atm
Fa0 = 0.188 lbmol/h tube
Kp = 7.8 atm-1/2
Ac = 0.0422 ft2

= 33.8 lb/ft3

Dengan melakukan variasi terhadap T0, maka didapatkan data sebagai berikut :

Dari hasil grafik diatas, dapat di lihat hubungan antara suhu pada inlet, konversi,
dan panjang reaktor memiliki hubungan berbanding lurus. Hal tersebut dapat
diakibatkan karena
