Potential energy total charge

Some batch reactions have the potential for very high energy levels. If all the reactants (and sometimes catalysts) are put into a kettle before the reaction is initiated, some exothermic reactions may result in a runaway. The use of continuous or semi-batch reactors to limit the energy present and to reduce the risk of a runaway should be considered. The term semi-batch refers to a system where one reactant and, if necessary, a catalyst is initially charged to a batch reactor. A second reactant is subsequently fed to the reactor under conditions such that an upset in reacting conditions can be detected and the flow of the reactant stopped, thus limiting the total amount of potential energy in the reactor.

The total electronic potential energy of a molecule depends on the averaged electronic charge density and the nonlocal charge-density susceptibility. The molecule is assumed to be in equilibrium with a radiation bath at temperature T, so that the probability distribution over electronic states is determined by the partition function at T. The electronic potential energy is given exactly by...
