Interpretation:
The temperature at which the given tubular reactor operated in order to achieve
Concept Introduction:
Tubular reactor: Reactions in gas phase are carried out in tubular reactors which have turbulent flow. The flow in tubular reactor designed by assuming no dispersion and radial gradients in either velocity, concentration, temperature and or reaction rate as in plug flow.
The ideal plug flow reactor depends only on total volume but not on its shape.
The mole balance for plug flow reactor in integral form is represented as follows,
