Chapter 16, Problem 16.5P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The final time t1(min) for the reactor (a) and reactor (b) are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The mean residence time is calculated to predict the various amount of time of all the molecules in which they reside in the body. It is denoted by tm. The mean residence time requires identifies the timing of those molecules which resides for the shorter time or for the longer time.

The probability of the deviation for the random variable to its mean position which is having square is known as variance, it is denoted by σ2.

The full form of RTD is residence time distribution. RTD function is applied to a complex system.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mean residence time, tm and variance for the reactor (a) and reactor (b) are to be stated.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The fractions of the fluid that spends 7min or longer in the reactor (a) and in the reactor (b) are to be stated.
