TUBE and TUBEDIM - Tubular Reactor Model for the Steady State

1 TUBE and TUBEDIM - Tubular Reactor Model for the Steady State 

The tubular reactor, steady-state design equation is of interest here. The dimensional and dimensionless forms are compared for the case of an nth-order reaction. 

5 Simulation Tools and Examples of Chemical Engineering Processes 

Note that the dimensionless parameter PAR is the ratio of the residence time, L/v, and the reaction time for an nth-order reaction, l/kCjJ o  

The results for both the separate dimensional TUBE and dimensionless TUBEDIM cases should be the same if the reaction order n and PAR are the same.
