Abstract

An exact analytical solution in terms of Laguerre hypergeometric function to problem of diffusion with first order chemical reaction in laminar flow through a tubular reactor is presented. A method of separation of variables followed by change of variables and Laplace transformation has been efficiently applied to the governing partial differential equation. The analytical solution obtained in this work has been compared with previously published numerical solution and shown to be an accurate and reliable solution.
