Homework 2 (Due 10/12/00) : Stink - 3 3 - 7 3

This document provides the homework assignments for a class, which includes: 1) Deriving a differential mole balance for a foam reactor where reaction only occurs in the liquid phase. 2) Calculating the steady state concentration of stink in a hotel room given ventilation rate and stink emission from carpet, and amount of stink remaining after 1 hour of ventilation. 3) Completing problems P1-15 or P1-11 and P2-7 or P2-6 from the Fogler textbook, which involve reactor modeling problems.

Homework 2 (due 10/12/00)

1. A novel reactor used in special processing operations is the foam reactor. This reactor is basically a PFR, but the fluid pumped is a foam (liquid+gas mixture). Assuming that the reaction occurs only in the liquid phase of the foam, derive the differential mole balance for the reactor in terms of -rA = rate of reaction, g-mol A per cm3 of liquid per second = volume fraction of gas FA = molar flow rate of A, g-mol/s V = volume of reactor 2. [Former Exam Problem] You've rented a cheap hotel room that reaks of cigarettes and booze and you want to air it out by running the room's ventilation system. The room is 8 meters long, 5 meters wide, 2.5 meter highs, and can be considered well mixed. You determine that the concentration of stink in the air initially is Cstink=5x103 mole/m3. It turns out that the carpet on the floor is the source of the smell; it puts out 2.5x10 7 moles of stink per square meter per second. (a) The high setting on the fan provides 0.1 m 3/s of ventilation air flow. What is the steady state stink concentration in the room under these conditions? (b) If you started blowing air at 0.1 m3/s as soon as you entered the room, how much stink would be left in the air after one hour of running the vent? 3. Fogler problem P1-15 (4th Ed of book) or P1-11 (3rd Ed of book), 4. Fogler problem P2-7 (4th Ed) or P2-6 (3rd Ed). 5. Fogler problem P2-12 (both Eds) Exothermic reaction.
