Chapter 8, Problem 2P

In chemical engineering, plug flow reactors (that is, those in which fluid flows from one end to the other with minimal mixing along the longitudinal axis) are often used to convert reactants into products. It has been determined that the efficiency of the conversion can sometimes be improved by recycling a portion of the

FIGURE P8.2

Schematic representation of a plug flow reactor with recycle.

In  1 + R ( 1 X A f ) R ( 1 X A f ) = R + 1 R [ 1 + R ( 1 X A f ) ]

Where X A f = the fraction of reactant A that is converted to product B. The optimal recycle rate corresponds to the minimum-sized reactor needed to attain the desired level of conversion. Use a numerical method to determine the recycle ratios needed to minimize reactor size for a fractional conversion of X A f = 0.9 .

Design a Turing Machine recognizing each of the following languages and draw its state diagram. Note that the transition functions of the Turing Machine must be in the format of “a → b,L/R", namely the machine reads single symbol a from the tape, writes single symbol b to the cell to replace a, and then goes to either left L or right R. You will receive 0 point if you do not follow this instruction. (1) {w|w=a²b³, n ≥ 0} (2) {w|w=a'b³,i0} (3) {w|w a'bick,i
Design a PDA recognizing each of the following languages and draw its state diagram. Note that the transition function must be in the format of “a, b →c", namely we can only push/pop one symbol into/from the stack one time upon one input symbol. You will receive 0 point if you push/pop multiple symbols into/from the stack one time upon one input symbol. (1) {w|wa"b", n is odd} = (2) {w|w=w², length of w is odd and Σ = {a,b} } (3) {w|w= = a²b²n, n ≥1 } (4) {w|w= =a^bn+mcm, n≥0, m ≥ 1 } (5) {w|w=a²b³n, n≥0} (6) {w|w= = a¹³, n ≥ 1, m≥ 1 and n‡m } Hint: two cases: n > m and n
