Schematic diagram of a plug flow reactor. The plug flow reactor model (PFR, sometimes called continuous tubular reactor, CTR, or piston flow reactors) is a model used to describe chemical reactions in continuous, flowing systems of cylindrical geometry.
The precise design and specification of tubes in shell and tube heat exchangers underscore the complexities of thermal engineering. Each design aspect, from material selection to tube arrangement and fluid flow, plays a vital role in the exchanger's performance, showcasing the intricacies and precision required in this field.

When a reactor is brought into operation, either for the first time or after a shutdown, it is in a transient state, and key process variables change with time. There are three idealised models used to estimate the most important process variables of different chemical reactors: Batch reactor model, Continuous stirred-tank reactor model (CSTR), and
A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.
The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association (also known as TEMA) is an association of fabricators of shell and tube type heat exchangers. [1] TEMA has established and maintains a set of construction standards for heat exchangers, known as the TEMA Standard. [ 2 ]
Piping and instrumentation diagram of pump with storage tank. Symbols according to EN ISO 10628 and EN 62424. A more complex example of a P&ID. A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.
Channel patterns are found in rivers, streams, and other bodies of water that transport water from one place to another.Systems of branching river channels dissect most of the sub-aerial landscape, each in a valley proportioned to its size.
Researchers at the Radboud University Nijmegen and Twente University, the Netherlands, have developed a microfluidic high-resolution NMR flow probe. They have shown a model reaction being followed in real-time. The combination of the uncompromised (sub-Hz) resolution and a low sample volume can prove to be a valuable tool for flow chemistry. [17]
