set up and solve a case-study example of the light-intensity distribution in a photochemical reactor.
Photochemical reactor modeling: a case-study problem. Although radiation is important in heat transfer, an analogous model can be used in the design of photochemical reactors. The modeling of these reactors requires that the radiation intensity be tracked in the reactor as a function of position and coupled to the kinetics of chemical reaction. The RTE […]
Write a critique on this technique of secondary-emission measurement.
Secondary-emission measurement: a case-study problem. An indirect way of measuring of secondary emission from ponds or large bodies of water used in waste treatment is to measure the concentration and velocity over the surface. The data can then be fitted to a model of the type presented in Section 20.1.4. In a typical experiment benzene […]
set up a mass transfer model and evaluate the variation of the local mass transfer coefficient at various locations in the plate.
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on an inclined susceptor: a case-study problem. An important application of convective mass transfer theory is in CVD processes employed to coat surfaces with thin films of metals or semi-conductors. In fact, this turns out to be an example of simultaneous heat and mass transfer with chemical reaction. A flat plate […]
write a comprehensive MATLAB simulation code.
A model for a hemodialyser with simulation of the patient–artificial-kidney system: a case-study problem. A useful case study is the paper by Ramachandran and Mashelkar (1980), where a mesoscopic model with axial dispersion was used for the blood side and plug flow was used for the dialysate side. The solution was analytic and was then […]
examine how the dispersion coefficient changes with the adsorption equilibrium constant.
A model for chromatographic separation: a case-study problem. An important application of Taylor dispersion is in chromatography. Here pulses of a mixture of solutes are introduced into one end of a packed-bed reactor containing an adsorbent and washed through the bed with a solvent. Since different species adsorb and diffuse at different rates, we obtain […]
