//INPUT
F_product_acetic_acid=0.1;// Rate of acetic acid produced (kmol/sec)
f_CO_reacted=0.8;//80% of CO reacted
f_CO=0.75;//Fraction of CO in feed
T_C=180;//Temperature in (°C)
T_K=T_C+273;//Temperature in (K)
P_total=20;//Total Pressure (atm)
R=82.056*(10^-3);//(cm3 atm/ K mol)
u_g=0.1;//(m/sec)
Conc_Rh=4*10^(-3);//Concentration of Rohdium(M)
Conc_CH3I=1;//Concentration of Methyl Iodide(M)
Epsilon=0.25;//Value calculated from Ex7.5.a
//CALCULATION
F_feed_CO=F_product_acetic_acid/f_CO_reacted;//Rate of flow of CO (kmol/sec)
F_total=F_feed_CO/f_CO;
Q=F_total*R*T_K/(P_total);
S=Q/u_g;
D_t=sqrt(4*S/%pi);
r_test=(158.8*(10^(6))*exp(-8684/T_K)*(Conc_Rh)*(Conc_CH3I))*(10^(-3));//Kinetic rate at 180 (°C)
liquid_vol= (F_product_acetic_acid/r_test)*(10^(-3));//liquid volume (m3)
h0=liquid_vol/S;//clear liquid
h=h0/(1-Epsilon);//aerated liquid
//OUTPUT
//Console Output

//Disclaimer: The numerically calculated value of reactor height is 14.34 m not 14.4 m as mentioned in the textbook
