i( want it in hysis only hysis)don't u waste my question
Q10: Consider the problem of diffusion and reaction in a cylindrical pore (e.g., in a solid catalyst) where component A reacts at the walls of the cylinder according to
AkB
Where:
rA=-kCA2,[2nd order reaction ]
As represented in FIG. below, in this system, component A diffuses into the pore due to lower concentration of A inside the pore than at the pore mouth. Since B is produced by the reaction, the concentration of B inside the pore is larger than at the inlet, causing diffusion of B out of the pore. At the inlet of the pore )=(0, the concentration is CA0. The end of the pore )=(L is assumed to be sealed, so there is no flux of A at x=L.
FIG. Representation of a cylindrical catalyst pore.
The mathematical model for this system can be expressed as follows:
Boundary Conditions:
DAd2CAdx2=kCA2
{CA=CA0,x=0
