Evaluation of Isothermal Effectiveness Factors for Nonlinear Kinetics Using an Approximate Method

A method based on the Taylor series expansion of the reaction rate has been used to evaluate the isothermal effectiveness factors of catalytic pellets. The prediction of the effectiveness factor is below an error of 14% for the second-order reaction used as an example. The method can be applied to a...

Description
Summary:A method based on the Taylor series expansion of the reaction rate has been used to evaluate the isothermal effectiveness factors of catalytic pellets. The prediction of the effectiveness factor is below an error of 14% for the second-order reaction used as an example. The method can be applied to any type of kinetic expression.
