Temperature vs. Time

If a reaction is too slow, there is a simple way to make the reaction go faster higher temperature. Milk goes sour even in my 38 F refrigerator after a few months. The milk will go sour much faster if I leave it on our kitchen table at 74°F for a few days. Typically, for a nonbiological 

Regarding the example of CO absorption in amine solution, I said the CO absorption was limited by time or kinetics or reaction rate and not equilibrium. Perhaps I could increase the amoimt of CO absorption in the amine solution by increasing the absorber temperature shown in Fig. 33.1. 

Maybe yes, but maybe no. Maybe yes, because the reaction will go faster with higher temperature. But maybe no, because a higher temperature reduces the amount of CO that, at equilibrium, can be absorbed by the amine solution.

A typical plot of total energy and temperature vs time (for aspirin, with the temperature constrained to be constant) is shown in Figure 2.1.

In principle two similar crucibles containing respectively a sample of the alloy under investigation and an inert reference specimen are cooled (or heated) together in a furnace. By means of conveniently inserted thermocouples it is possible to follow (1) the continuous reference temperature trend of the reference specimen, (2) the temperature trend of the specimen under examination and (3) the temperature difference (A 7 ) between the two. If, at a certain temperature, there is a change in the structure of the sample (that is, if a boundary line in the corresponding phase diagram is crossed), a variation in the slope of the temperature vs. time curve is recorded. As a consequence the A7 vs. time curve (or vs. temperature) shows a deviation from the baseline. The temperatures at which such deviations are observed are used to build the phase diagram. 

In (b) typical trends of temperature vs. time are presented T0 is the controlled furnace temperature trend, 7 R is the T trend of the inert reference specimen, Ts is the trend observed for a sample undergoing some transformation. The corresponding differential curve (AT vs. time (or vs. temperature)) is shown in (c).

Sect. 5.4), the heat transfer process can be modeled using classical unsteady state heat conduction theory [142-144]. From the mathematical solutions to heat conduction problems, a thermal diffusivity can be extracted from measurements of temperatures vs. time at a position inside a gel sample of well-defined geometry. 

In formulating the inverse problem, we are required to find the values of the constants in the kinetic equation which will minimize the divergence between the temperature-vs. -time curves calculated from the equation and those obtained experimentally. To do this, the time dependence of the temperature is taken to be linear ... 

The cure cycle is the temperature vs time schedule used to polymerize the thermoset precursors. The selection of an adequate cure cycle has several purposes. What is desired is to obtain the final part without strains exceeding design tolerances, with a uniform conversion (usually close to the maximum possible conversion), without degradation produced by the high temperatures attained during the cure, with convenient morphologies (in the case of heterogeneous materials), and all this, must be achieved in the minimum possible time for economic reasons.

The simpler and most reliable approach to the use of the DIERS methodology is the use of FAUSKY s reactive system screening tool (RSST). It is an experimental autoclave which simulates actual situations that may arise in industrial systems. The RSST runs as a differential scanning calorimeter that may operate as a vent-sizing unit where data can readily be obtained and can be applied to full-scale process conditions. The unit is computerized and records plots of pressure vs. temperature, temperature vs. time, pressure vs. time, and the rates of temperature rise and pressure rise vs. the inverse of temperature. From these data it determines the potential for runaway reactions and measures the rates of temperature and pressure increases to allow reliable determinations of the energy and gas release rates. This information can be combined with simplified analytical tools to assess reactor vent size requirements. The cost of setting up a unit of this kind is close to 15,000. 

The values predicted for a are very different than the experimental values, the difference being larger for catalyst C which has less pore volume and tower macroporosity. Nevertheless Figures 7 and 8 demonstrate an interesting rule which could be used to shorten the lengthy tests for screening demetallization catalysts and to predict temperature vs. time curves for maintaining a constant demetallation rate in industrial plants (15).

In the case of the DTA/TGA method, the ash samples were placed in a kaolin sarrgrle holder and gradually heated at a lO-C/min rate up to the level of 1000 C. The STA instrument was connected to a PC to generate plots of weight loss and temperature vs. time. For the sintering tests, the ash samples were placed into 25-mL porcelain crucibles and gradually heated from 600 to 1000 C, at 50-100 C intervals, and for periods of 1 b each time, while the physical state and weight of the samples were monitored at the end of each time interval.
