Abstract

In this paper, conditions of minimal dissipation for processes occurring in chemical reactors with a given duration and a given degree of transformation are obtained. It is demonstrated that the derived entropy production can be used to construct the space of realizable (thermodynamically feasible) regimes of a chemical reactor.
