QUESTION 1: 20 marks 20 points It is planned to carry out the following second-order, elementary, non- catalytic gas-phase reaction in an adiabatic CSTR: A+B_C+3D. Only A and B (no inerts) are fed to the reactor at equimolar flow rates of 150 mol/min each. The rate constant is related to the temperature by Arrhenius law as follows: k = 37.68x10^10 exp(-80000/RT) L/mol.min. The heats of formation of A, B, C and D (at 298 K) in kJ/mol are -235.3, -393.5,...
An air-breathing gas-turbine jet engine operates at SSSF with complete combustion of 1 kmol / s of liquid ethanol fuel (C₂H₅OH). The given air-fuel ratio is 33 kg-air/kg-fuel. The constant pressure combustion process (2 → 3) results in a small amount of heat transfer out to the surroundings.
