The adiabatic temperature rise of a reaction is

  • A.the difference between the inlet and coolant temperature
  • B.the rise that is needed to double the rate
  • C.the temperature change at full conversion
  • D.the temperature at which the reaction becomes adiabatic

Answer: C

It is the heat of reaction divided by the heat capacity of the mixture and is a single number characterising the hazard. A large value means the reaction cannot safely be run adiabatically. Dilution lowers the rise by raising heat capacity.
