Ammonia Process Energy Balance Analysis

This document provides an energy balance calculation for mixing a feed stream into reactor R2. It lists the molar heat capacities of various components and gives temperature and molar flow rate data for the feed stream and stream exiting reactor R1. The goal is to use a goal seek function to vary the temperature of the stream entering reactor R2 (TR2 In) to achieve an energy balance of 0, where the energy out of the system equals the energy in.
