Abstract:The coupled nonlinear system of differential equations in 1-butanol dehydration under atmospheric and isothermal conditions are solved analytically for the microchannel reactor. Approximate analytical expressions of concentrations of 1butanol, 1-butene, water and dibutyl ether are presented by using homotopy analysis method. The homotopy analysis method eliminated the classical perturbation method problem, because of the existence a small parameter in the equation. The analytical results are compared with the … Show more
