Responsive radfrac

If Radfrac responds, then can’t it be run!? If it can be run, what are the specific settings required?
It can run! The specific settings depend on the circumstances, such as whether it is a gas-phase reaction or a liquid-phase reaction, and whether a catalyst is used or not. Before that, you need to first define the reaction subject, then import that subject into the Radfrac module, and afterwards make the other adjustments.
I’m using Aspen 11.1; Radfrac has only one feed stream – can I set up two?
Sure, pay attention to the instructions on the blue arrows; some of them can be connected to multiple flow streams.
Hehe, the feed can come in from multiple sources. There’s also a reactive option under the Radfrac module; you just enter your reaction parameters there. Additionally, some kinetic data is required – you can simply look at an example reaction for details; Aspen has similar information available
Multiple feeds are possible; by moving up and down with the blue arrow, more arrows will appear (just learning this)
That’s amazing; the person above me has also learned it: handshake
RADFRAC can simulate reactive distillation; it works well for processes that involve reactions. Specifically, the reaction equation is specified within the reaction settings, and in RADFRAC’s reaction section basic parameters such as residence time, reaction zone, and reaction terms are set. The rest of the settings are similar to those used in ordinary distillation, and the system can operate accordingly.
Upstairs, are you referring to the dynamic settings for the reaction?
