Sumario:This paper presents the thermal analysis and mathematical modeling of a discontinuous agitation reactor. A data acquisition phase was implemented in terms of operation and utility of the agitation reactors. Subsequently, the concepts of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer and matter transport were applied to perform the respective thermal analysis and thus, determine the energy contained and transferred in the fluids used. In addition, a mathematical model was deduced in the EES software to examine its behavior, taking into account the operational variables subjected to various types of fluids. Finally, the physical-chemical environment of the reactor was simulated to validate the calculated data and compare them with the experimental values, relating the geometry of the equipment to the performance conditions and the specifications of the final product.
