Consider Figure E17.6(a), in which the overall heat transfer coefficient ((U)) is assumed to be 25 W/m2

Question:

 Consider Figure E17.6(a), in which the overall heat transfer coefficient \((U)\) is assumed to be 25 W/m2οC. It can be noted that in Figure E 17.6 (b) and E 17.6 (c)(b) the transients in exit
temperature and \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) concentration appear to be negligible. Now increase the flowrate of benzene to \(0.01 \mathrm{kmol} / \mathrm{h}\), while keeping the flowrate of air constant. Simultaneously increase the temperature of air to \(520^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). Did you notice any difference in the transient profile of temperature and benzene and \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) concentration at the exit of the reactor compared to what is obtained in Example 17.6? Why or why not?
