Description

Numerical solutions for the conversion of an isothermal axially dispersed plug flow reactor accomplishing first and second order reactions are obtained. The Danckwerts boundary conditions for the so-called "closed" configuration are used. We use the shooting method since it is a split-boundary-value problem. Damkohler number (Da) and Inverse Peclet number (1/Pe) must have same order of magnitude unless one gets a stiff ODE which cannot be solved easily with ode45.

hello
its good but not converging for high peclet numbers. by the way is this shooting point method??????? i am actually looking for OCFE
