RTD + Micromixing
7 important questions on RTD + Micromixing
What is the difference between micro-mixing and macro-mixing?
- Macro-mixing involves larger scales, focusing on homogeneity in large volumes.
- Micro-mixing deals with small-scale mixing, ensuring uniformity at the particle level.
- Macro-mixing might use slower processes, while micro-mixing requires faster actions.
- Each leads to different reactions in chemical engineering and material science.
When has micromixing a bad influence on conversion?
What for influence has micormixing on 1st order reactions with conversion?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What is complete segregation in a reactor?
What is ideal micro-mixing?
What assumptions can you make about ideal micromixing
- Degree of segregation = 0
- RTD is insufficient if n not equal to 1 for exact calculation of the conversion
- Moment of mixing is important.
What assumptions can you make about Comeplete Segregation?
- Degree of segregation = 1
- RTD is sufficient for exact calculation of conversion
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
