Time Narration
00:01 Welcome to this tutorial on simulating a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) in DWSIM.
00:07 In this tutorial, we will learn to: simulate a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR),
00:14 calculate Conversion and Residence Time for a reaction in a CSTR.
00:20 To record this tutorial, I am using DWSIM 4.3 and Windows 7.
00:28 The process demonstrated in this tutorial is identical in other OS also such as- Linux, Mac OS X or FOSSEE OS on ARM.
00:40 To practice this tutorial, you should know how to- add components to a flowsheet,
00:46 select thermodynamic packages,
00:49 add material and energy stream and specify their properties
00:54 and add kinetic reaction in reaction manager.
00:58 The pre-requisite tutorials are mentioned on our website.
01:03 You can access these tutorials and all the associated files from this site.
01:09 We will develop a flowsheet to determine the exit composition from an isothermal CSTR.
01:16 Here we give Reaction, Property Package and Inlet Stream Conditions.
01:22 Next, we give CSTR dimensions and reaction kinetics.
01:27 I have already opened DWSIM on my machine.
01:32 Go to File menu and select New Steady-state Simulation.
01:37 Simulation Configuration Wizard window appears. At the bottom, click on Next.
01:44 Now, in the Compounds Search tab, type Ethanol.
01:50 Select Ethanol from ChemSep database.
01:54 Similarly, add Acetic Acid.
01:58 Next, add Water.
02:02 Next, add Ethyl Acetate.
02:06 Click on Next.
02:08 Now comes Property Packages.
02:12 From Available Property Packages, double-click on NRTL.
02:18 Then click on Next.
02:21 We are moved to Flash Algorithm.
02:24 From Default Flash Algorithm, select Nested Loops(VLE).
02:31 Click on Next.
02:33 The next option is System of Units.
02:37 Under System of Units, we will select C5.
02:43 Then click on Finish.
02:46 Let us now maximize the simulation window.
02:50 Let’s insert a feed stream that enters the CSTR.
02:54 Go to Object Palette.
02:56 From Streams section, drag and drop a Material Stream to the Flowsheet.
03:02 Let’s change the name of this stream to Feed.
03:07 Now we will specify the Feed stream properties.
03:12 Go to Input Data.
03:15 Select Flash Spec as Temperature and Pressure (TP), if not already selected.
03:21 By default, Temperature and Pressure are already selected as Flash Spec.
03:27 Change Temperature to 70 degC and press Enter.
03:33 Change Pressure to 1 bar and press Enter.
03:38 Change Mass Flow to 3600 kg/hour and press Enter.
03:45 Now let us specify the feed stream compositions.
03:50 Under Composition, choose the Basis as Mole Fractions, if not already selected.
03:57 By default, Mole Fractions is already selected as Basis.
04:02 Now for Ethanol, enter the Amount as 0.48 and press Enter.
04:10 For Acetic Acid, enter 0.5 and press Enter.
04:16 Similarly, for Water, enter 0.02 and press Enter.
04:23 For Ethyl Acetate, enter 0 and press Enter.
04:28 On the right, click on this green tick to Accept Changes.
04:33 Next, we will define the Kinetic Reaction.
04:37 Under Tools, click on Reactions Manager.
04:42 Chemical Reactions Manager window opens.
04:46 Under Chemical Reactions tab, click on the green coloured Add Reaction button.
04:52 Then click on Kinetic.
04:55 Add New Kinetic Reaction window opens.
04:59 Under Identification, enter the Name as Ethyl Acetate.
05:05 Now enter the Description. “Irreversible reaction for synthesis of Ethyl Acetate from Ethanol and Acetic Acid.”
05:15 Next part is a table of Components, Stoichiometry and Reaction Orders.
05:21 First column Name shows the available compounds here.
05:26 Second column corresponds to its Molar Weight
05:30 Next column is Include. Under Include, check all the check boxes.
05:37 The fourth column is BC. Under BC, check the Ethanol check box as Ethanol is the base component.
05:47 Next column is Stoichiometric coefficients
05:51 Under Stoichiometric coefficients column, enter: -1 for Ethanol,
05:58 -1 for Acetic Acid,
06:01 1 for Water and 1 for Ethyl Acetate and then press Enter.
06:10 In the Stoichiometry field, we can see it is showing OK.
06:15 Here, the Equation field shows the reaction equation.
06:20 Next column is DO.
06:22 We are considering the reaction to be elementary.
06:26 So under DO column, enter: 1 for Ethanol,
06:32 1 for Acetic Acid and then press Enter.
06:38 Next column is RO.
06:41 Since we are considering an irreversible reaction, we will not enter anything here.
06:47 Then comes Kinetic Reactions Parameters.
06:51 Our rate is in terms of molar concentration.
06:55 So, we will select Basis as Molar Concentrations.
07:00 Select Fase as Liquid, if not already selected.
07:05 Enter Tmin as 300.
07:09 Enter Tmax as 2000.
07:12 Now, go to Direct and Reverse Reactions Velocity Constant.
07:17 In Direct Reaction, enter A as 0.005.
07:23 Click on OK and close Chemical Reactions Manager window.
07:29 Now, let us insert a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor to the flowsheet.
07:35 Go to Object Palette.
07:37 Under Unit Operations, Click on the Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor.
07:43 Drag and drop it to the flowsheet.
07:46 Let us now arrange it as required.
07:50 And then, let us insert one Output Stream.
07:54 To do that, let us drag one Material Stream.
07:58 Let us once again arrange it.
08:01 Leave that stream as unspecified.
08:04 We will change the name of this stream to Product.
08:09 Next, we will insert one Energy Stream and name this stream as Energy.
08:16 We are now ready to specify the Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor.

Let’s click on it.

08:23 On the left, we can see a tab displaying properties related to the CSTR.
08:29 Under Connections, click on the drop-down against Inlet Stream.

And select Feed.

08:36 Next, click on the drop-down against Outlet Stream 1 and select Product.
08:43 Then click on the drop-down against Energy Stream and select Energy.
08:50 Now go to the next section, Calculation Parameters.
08:55 Here, the first option is Reaction Set. By default, it is Default Set.
09:02 Next, click on the drop-down against Calculation Mode and select Isothermic.
09:09 Then click on the field against Reactor Volume and enter 0.14

Then press Enter.

09:18 Now we will run the simulation.
09:21 So, from the toolbar, click on Solve Flowsheet button.
09:26 When the calculations are completed, click on the Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor in the flowsheet.
09:33 From the Property Editor Window of CSTR, locate Results section.
09:39 Under the General tab, click Residence time.

It is 0.033 hour.

09:46 Now go to Conversions tab.
09:49 Here for Ethanol, the conversion is 99.5% and for Acetic Acid, it is 95.5%.
10:00 Now, go to Insert menu and select Master Property Table.
10:06 Double-click on the Master Property Table.
10:10 Configure Master Property Table window opens.
10:14 Enter Name as Results – Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor.
10:19 Enter Object Type as Material Stream.
10:22 By default, Material Stream is already selected. So, we will not change it.
10:29 Under Properties to display, select Object as Product and Feed.
10:35 Under Property, scroll down to see all the parameters.
10:40 Now select the properties as
