Answer / Girender Singh

To calculate heat transfer in an unsteady-state reactor with a jacket containing either steam or brine, you can use the Energy Balance Equation for the reactor and the Jacket. The Energy Balance Equation for the reactor is:nnQ_R = m_R * Cp_R * dT_RnWhere: n- Q_R is the heat generated or absorbed by the reactor per unit timen- m_R is the mass of the reactor fluidn- Cp_R is the specific heat capacity of the reactor fluidn- dT_R is the change in temperature of the reactor fluidnFor the jacket, you can use the following Energy Balance Equation:nnQ_J = U_o * A_o * (T_jacket - T_shell)nWhere:n- Q_J is the heat transferred from the jacket to the reactor per unit timen- U_o is the overall heat transfer coefficientn- A_o is the outer surface area of the reactorn- T_jacket is the temperature of the jacket fluidn- T_shell is the temperature of the shell (reactor wall)nTo solve this problem, you need data for m_R, Cp_R, U_o, A_o, T_jacket, and T_shell. The change in reactor temperature (dT_R) can be found by solving the differential equation that describes your specific process.

Question 70 - According to Adolf Eugen Fick (1829 - 1901) : rate of diffusion v increases with less wall thickness t, increased area A and decreased molecular weight of a fluid M. The diffusion constant D decreased with increasing M. (a) By assuming v, t, dP, A, M and D changes proportionally of each other, find the equation of v as a function of t, dP, A and D. (b) The ratio of self diffusion constant D, at T = 273 K and P = 0.1 MPa, for gases B and C are 1.604 : 0.155. If only 2 gases exist in such a system : hydrogen and nitrogen, find the type of gas for B and C with reference to their molecular weights M. (c) By using the equation of kinetic energy 0.5 MV = constant where V = square of v, find the ratio of V for B and V for C, or V(B) / V(C), as a function of M(B) and M(C), where M(B) is molecular weight of B and M(C) the molecular weight of C : Graham's Law of Diffusion.
