Calculation method
Calculation method
Reactor inlet reactant (mol/s)
Fresh/[1−(1−conversion)(1−purge)].
Reactant converted (mol/s)
Inlet×conversion.
Unreacted purge (mol/s)
Inlet×(1−conversion)×purge.
Recycled reactant (mol/s)
Inlet×(1−conversion)×(1−purge).

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Fresh feed, recycle-purge fractions, conversion assumptions. Returns Steady-state stream quantities. All coefficients and observations are user supplied; results describe only the stated mathematical model. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification. Fresh reactant feed (mol/s): minimum 1e-12, maximum 1000000000000.0. Single-pass conversion fraction: minimum 1e-12, maximum 1. Purge fraction of unreacted stream: minimum 1e-12, maximum 1.
