Heat balance of the reaction vessel
Thread Content
May I ask how chemical companies generally calculate cooling energy consumption? Can the formula Q=q*Cp*（T1-T2) be used? For example, the temperature drops from T1 to T2 based directly on the heat capacity and mass of the material in the reactor. But this formula cannot calculate the heat loss either; the values it produces result in an inaccurate power requirement for the refrigeration unit. Please give specific examples. Thank you first
A simple physical heating and cooling process will suffice, but since it is a reaction tank, the issue of heat generated by chemical reactions should also be taken into consideration, right?
The calculation is quite complex; there should be some empirical formulas used in industry for estimation purposes. I’m sorry, I don’t have it. . . . . .
It is recommended to search on Baidu. The calculation is complex, as there are many factors such as heat loss, reaction heat, and heat melting.
Hehe, there are many factors to consider. The question posed by the original poster seems too vague – information on the properties of the materials and the type of response isn’t available, so it’s basically impossible to do any calculations! :loveliness:
I’m doing this too, but I don’t know how to calculate it. Please, experts, help me out.
