Description for Rate Constant Calculation for Thermal Reactions: Methods and Applications
Hardcover. * Provides an overview of the latest computational approaches to estimate rate constants for thermal reactions, which are required in order to optimize processes and operating conditions in the manufacture of a broad range of products including food, fuels, medicines, engineers, and catalytic converters, for example. Editor(s): DaCosta, Herbert; Fan, Maohong. Num Pages: 360 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TDCB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 166 x 240 x 23. Weight in Grams: 646.
Providing an overview of the latest computational approaches to estimate rate constants for thermal reactions, this book addresses the theories behind various first-principle and approximation methods that have emerged in the last twenty years with validation examples. It presents in-depth applications of those theories to a wide range of basic and applied research areas. When doing modeling and simulation of chemical reactions (as in many other cases), one often has to compromise between higher-accuracy/higher-precision approaches (which are usually time-consuming) and approximate/lower-precision approaches (which often has the advantage of speed in providing results). This book covers both approaches. It is augmented ... Read more
