For turbulent flow, the one-seventh-power-law model is usually used to describe the velocity profile, that is,

Derive the E(t) function for turbulent flow in a tubular reactor. Calculate the conversion if an elementary isomerization occurs. The specific reaction rate is k = 0.1 s-1, the centerline velocity of 10 dm/s, and the reactor length is 100 dm. R = 10 dm.
