Chemical Reaction Engineering
The reaction A → B is conducted in an adiabatic plug flow reactor (PFR). Pure A at a concentration of 2 kmol/m³ is fed to the reactor at the rate of 0.01 m³ /s and at a temperature of 500 K. If the exit conversion is 20%, then the exit temperature (in k)is (Data: Heat of reaction at 298 K = - 50000 kJ/ kmole of A reacted Heat capacities CPA = CPB = 100kJ/kmole. K (may be assumed to be independent of temperature))

Chemical Reaction Engineering
For a tubular reactor with space time 'τ' and residence time 'θ', the following statement holds good.

τ = θ , for a non-isothermal reactor
τ and θ are always equal
τ = θ , when the fluid density changes in the reactor
τ = θ , for an isothermic tubular reactor in which the density of the process fluid is constant
