Pre class activity: Collection and Analysis of Rate Data
Lecture notes for chemical reaction engineering
Read Chapter 5, and 6 from Fogler (2016).
Revise numerical solution of ordinary differential equations
We will be using
solve_ivp
interpolation function from thescipy.interpolate
library. Go through documentation for scipy.integrate.solve_ivpAlso look at Python ODE solvers
For design equations in terms of conversion, many a times it is possible to obtain an analytical solution by integration. It is possible to obtain a solution to these integrals using symbolic mathematics.
SymPy is a Python library for symbolic mathematics. Go through SymPY documentation, particularly the section on Integrals to learn more.
