Summary
Equations of gas-phase chemical kinetics (1.85) (see Section 1.3) are valid for a constant volume (V = const) BR, while occurring a reversible chemical reactions. However, in the general case, it is desirable to allow for volume variation (V = var) in the reactor R, or in an assumed reactor of the system of reactors (SR), as well as in occurrences of irreversible reactions herein, feed and discharge of substances and surface reactions [5]. Such reactions reflect the change in gas mass and its composition in the reactor due to a number of processes (for example, evaporation, condensation, combustion of metals and coal, absorption, etc.).
