Perfectly Stirred Reactors

Albeit being a model reactor, the perfectly stirred reactor -- abbreviated as PSR -- is, due to its simplicity, an important tool for both industrial and academic applications. In Cosilab, perfectly stirred reactors with an arbitrary number of inlets can be simulated simply and efficiently. In particular, perfectly stirred reactors can be used as stand-alone reactors or as elements in a reactor-network simulation.

Just as one example, shown in the following figure is a screenshot of the Cosilab graphical user interface showing results for the temperature and the molefractions of some major species for a reactor with two inlets, calculated with the GRI mechanism.
