0.25 Reaction N + 3H NH: Ammonia Material Balance Using Gauss Jordan Elimination and Newton Raphson

The document presents a material balance model for an ammonia production process using the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen. It shows the flow of nitrogen, hydrogen, and ammonia through different stages of the process, including the feed, reactor inlet and outlet, product separation, vapor outlet, and purge and recycle streams. A system of equations is set up to calculate the molar flow rates of each component at each stage using Gauss-Jordan elimination and Newton-Raphson methods.
