Using Matlab, or other ODE solver, plot the fraction of conversion (fA), T, and -A as a function of cumulative volume (V). You can set the volume of the reactor to 4 m. b) What is the volume of the PFR corresponding to the maximum rate of reaction (-A). How much higher is the temperature at the outlet (V=4 m) compared to the inlet?
