Using MATLAB:

2. CSTR Problem A cascade of 3 isothermal continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) in series is used to carry out the following liquid-phase reaction, as show in the figure below: V. V. CAo CA2 A1 The dynamic equations that govern the system (under constant flow rates) are given by carrying out the molar balance for component A for each CSTF: Accumulation - In - Out +Generation - Consumption dC41 1 A2 dCAs_1 Setting the left-hand side of each equation to zero describes the system at steady state conditions with a set of 3 linear algebraic equations. Note that each CSTR has its own residence time (Tj) and reaction rate constant (k) Using the left division (backslash operator) in MATLAB, solve for the 3 unknowns (CA CA2, CA3) given the following T2=2s T3-3 s CAo 100 mol/ L 1-1 s-1 2.
