ABSTRACT
In this experiment, our objectives are to examine the effect in a tubular flow reactor and to construct a residence time distribution (RDT) for both pulse input and step change. The first experiment is the effect of pulse input in a tubular flow reactor. Before the experiment was done, we need to do some general start-up process in order to get a better result and to avoid errors during experiment. After that, a constant flow rate was set up at about 700 ml/min. After that, both of the experiment was done and the conductivity values for both step change and pulse input at the inlet and outlet was recorded and tabulated.
Experiment 1: Effect of pulse input in a tubular flow reactor.
The inlet and outlet conductivity C(t) is recorded and tabulated. After that a graph of C(t) versus time was plotted. Then, we are able to calculate each of the distribution of the exit time E(t). The E(t) was calculated at a regular interval of 30 seconds. After that, the graph for E(t) versus time was plotted. Then, we are able to calculated the value of mean residence time, varience and skewness. The value is the tabulated.
Experiment 2: Effect of step change in a turbular flow reactor.
The inlet and outlet conductivity C(t) is recorded and tabulated. After that a graph of C(t) versus time was plotted. Then, we are able to calculate each of the distribution of the exit time E(t). The E(t) was calculated at a regular interval of 30 seconds. After that, the graph for E(t) versus time was plotted. Then, we are able to calculated the value of mean residence time, varience and skewness. The value is the tabulated.
