I am continuing to work with the Gibbs Minimization Reactor Unit. I am back to the Reaction Type: Specify Compounds. When this Reaction Type originally failed to meet my expectations, I moved to the Reaction Type: Reaction Package which would not handle three reactions until Revision ..14. Thank you.
The problem(s) with Reaction Type: Specify Compounds is that the heat duty is positive for a known set of exothermic reactions. Please compare +194 kW (Specify Compounds) with -219 kW ( Reaction Package). I am attaching two flowsheets, one for each Reaction Type. You will easily see other indications of problems (I think). You already have the fsd file—the last one that I e-mailed you. If you want another copy please request it.
I thought, when I started this Unit study, that the results would be similar for both Reaction Types. I was definitely wrong. I hope that you can help. Is my mindset the problem here?
