Problem 1. Properties of a Tubular Reactor Following a step change in the input tracer concentration to a reactor at t = 0, the exit concentration is Cou(t)=7 for 0 10 min a) What is the residence time distribution, E(t), of the reactor? b) What is the average residence time of the reactor? c) What is the “variance” (6²) of the reactor? d) What would be the output at long times if a non-reactive tracer is input with the following concentration: {1+0.1*sin[10min-1*t]}? e) If you were to approximate this reactor as a tubular reactor with dispersion, what would the residence time and the dispersion number of the tubular reactor be?
