Problem with plotting results from odesolve
Hello,
I am working in mathcad prime 3.0 on an assignment and I am modeling a Trickle Bed Reactor (plug flow behavior). I have set up the mole balances, from which I know by now that they are correct. I use the odesolve function to solve a set of differential (and algebraic) equations. However when I plot the results I do not get the results I want. Attached is the file I made. I made a plot with the liquid concentrations of the components. I see only a difference in the concentration of A and I am wondering what I am doing wrong, because i should also a difference in the concentration of B and C.
Below a brief description on the case:
I have three reactions. The third reaction does not take place due to a reaction rate constant which is zero.
- A + H2 -> B
- B + H2 -> C
- A -> G (This reaction is not taking place)
I am feeding hydrogen in the gas phase to the reactor together with liquid component A. I have set up 9 mole balances. The solid phase is in steady state, so, these are algebraic equations:
- Gas phase hydrogen
- Liquid phase hydrogen
- Solid phase hydrogen
- Liquid phase A
- Solid phase A
- Liquid phase B
- Solid phase B
- Liquid phase C
- Solid phase C
Maybe I am forgetting something trivial, but i'm am stuck for a while now. Any help would be appreciated. To be clear: I am wondering why i don't see a concentration difference for component B and C in the plot.
Thanks in advance
Kind regards,
Xafie
pc. unfortunately i can not attach the file. If needed i can also send the file via email
