The influence of the diffusional phenomena on the apparent kinetics for nth‐order gas‐solid non‐catalytic reactions
is studied assuming the unreacted‐core model. Flat‐plate, cylindrical and spherical particles are considered, the size of which may vary with extent of reaction. Specific methods of contacting of fluid with solid are taken into account, but their influence on the results are not remarkable. At high conversions of cylindrical and spherical particles, the process is always chemical reaction controlled.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
