β¦ Synopsis
This paper considers the combined effect of longitudinal diffusion and external mass transfer resistance on the performance of fixed bed processes with a favourable non-linear isotherm. It is shown that., whereas the linear additive principle is obeyed when the isotherms are " almost linear," for non-linear systems the two mechanisms are definitely not linearly additive. A simple method is proposed for estimating this combined effect. with good accuracy.

Zusammenfassung-In dieser Arbeit wird die Uberlagerung einer longitudinalen Diffusion und eines gusseren Stoffilbergangswiderstandes auf die Ausbeute eines Festbettprozesses besonders mit nichtlinearer Isotherme etirtert. Es wird gezeigt, dass bei " nahezu " linearer Isotherme das Prinzip der linearen Add&iv&& erfiillt wird, wiihrend sich bei nichtlinearen Systemen die bieden Mechanismen sicherlich nicht linear addieren.
Eine einfache Methode wird vorgeschlagen, die diesen, Effekt aus der Uberlagerung mit guter Genauigkeit abzuschiitzen gestattet.
