A spherical catalyst of radius d₂ = 15 mm is used in a packed bed reactor. The fluid containing Cab = 1.25 of the reactant A, flows past the catalyst at a free - stream L velocity of u = 0.75m. Fluid properties are given: diffusivity DAB = 2.5× 10-117 and the momentum diffusivity v = 1.0 × 10-6 m² If the reaction is external mass transfer limiting and proceeds instantaneously, calculate the mass flux of A at the boundary. • If the reaction has the following rate law: -TAS = K+CAs and if k = 3.0 × 10-6 m³ 0-6 m², what will be the mass flux of A at the boundary?
