Column Reaction Definitions

 

Use this window to view the reaction stoichiometry and to allow reaction data to be entered for reactive distillation. When the window is entered, previously supplied data for the selected reaction set will be displayed.

 

Usage

 

This window is accessed by pressing the Modify Data button for a selected reaction set on the Column Reaction Selection Window.

 

Kinetic Rate Equation

The reaction rate Calculation Method may be the built in Power Law Rate Equation:

or rates may calculated by a Kinetic Procedure or by a User Added Subroutine. The default is specified for the reaction set in the Reaction Data - Reaction Definitions Window. For a Kinetic Procedure, you must select the name of a procedure which has already been defined in the Procedure Data. For a User Added Subroutine, you must select the name for a subroutine which has been linked into your version of PRO/II.

 

If you select Kinetic Procedure, you may press the Enter Data button to open the Column User Kinetics Procedure Data Window where you can define parameters for the rate calculation.

 

Name

Each row in the table represents one reaction in the set. You may modify the previously supplied Name for each reaction.

 

Definition

The stoichiometry is shown for information only and you cannot change it. The reaction stoichiometry is defined and modified in the Reaction Data Sets Window.

 

Reaction Type

The reaction set may contain both kinetic and equilibrium data for the reactions. You may want to use either of these or you may simply wish to specify a conversion. You must select Kinetic, Equilibrium or Conversion from the drop-down list to indicate how the reaction is to be calculated.

 

Additional Data

Push the Enter Data button to supply data for the reaction. Depending on the selected Reaction Type, one of the following windows will open:

Column Kinetic Reaction Data Window

Column Equilibrium Reaction Data Window

Column Conversion Reaction Data Window

Data entered here override any data in the reaction set for this unit only.
