Develop a model equation, in final, integrated algebraic form, to determine the total transfer rate of ethylene
Question:
Develop a model equation, in final, integrated algebraic form, to determine the total transfer rate of ethylene WA, units mole A/time, product of flux and surface area) into the cylindrical catalyst pellet. The model equation should include terms for the diffusion coefficient (D Ae), the dimensions of the pellet (Ro, R1, L), and concentration of ethylene. If the required transfer rate of ethylene. If the required transfer rate of ethylene (A) into a single pellet is 9.238 X 10-6 gmole/s, what is the required R1, in units of cm, if the catalyst surface is fixed at Ro = 0.5 cm? It will also be necessary to calculate the effective diffusion coefficient as part of the problem solution.
