Method&Equations
The model determines the flow rate of products and reactants as:
PRDOUT = PRDIN + RCTIN * FRAC
RCTOUT = RCTIN - RCTIN * FRAC
where:
PRDOUT is the mass flow of the product in the outlet
PRDIN is the mass flow of the product in the inlet
RCTIN is the mass flow of the reactant in the inlet
RCTOUT is the mass flow of the reactant in the outlet
FRAC is the fraction of inlet reactant converted to product
The model also determines the outlet enthalpy by applying the heat of reaction:
ENTHOT = ((ENTHIN * FLOWIN) + (HREACT * RCTIN * FRAC)) / FLOWOT
where:
ENTHOT is the specific enthalpy of the outlet stream
ENTHIN is the specific enthalpy of the inlet stream
FLOWIN is the total inlet stream flow rate
HREACT is the heat of reaction
FLOWOT is the total outlet stream flow rate
The outlet stream temperature and vapor fraction are determined from the outlet stream's specific enthalpy and pressure.
