What is Space time of the reactor?

Space time of the reactor is the time necessary to process one volume of reactor fluid at the entrance conditions.

How to Calculate Space time of the reactor?

Space time of the reactor calculator uses Space time=Volume of the reactor/Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor to calculate the Space time, Space time of the reactor is the time necessary to process one volume of reactor fluid at the entrance conditions. This is the time it takes for the amount of fluid that takes up the entire volume of the reactor to either completely enter or completely exit the reactor. Space time and is denoted by 𝛕 symbol.

How to calculate Space time of the reactor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Space time of the reactor, enter Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor (v_o) and Volume of the reactor (V) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Space time of the reactor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1 = 1/1.

FAQ

What is Space time of the reactor?

Space time of the reactor is the time necessary to process one volume of reactor fluid at the entrance conditions. This is the time it takes for the amount of fluid that takes up the entire volume of the reactor to either completely enter or completely exit the reactor and is represented as 𝛕=V/v_o or Space time=Volume of the reactor/Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor. The volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor gives the volume of the reactants stream being fed to the reactor per unit time and The volume of the reactor gives us the capacity of the reactor.

How to calculate Space time of the reactor?

Space time of the reactor is the time necessary to process one volume of reactor fluid at the entrance conditions. This is the time it takes for the amount of fluid that takes up the entire volume of the reactor to either completely enter or completely exit the reactor is calculated using Space time=Volume of the reactor/Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor. To calculate Space time of the reactor, you need Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor (v_o) and Volume of the reactor (V). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor and Volume of the reactor and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
