Introduction

When a reaction file is loaded into the unit, SysCAD creates at least one additional tab, R1. Depending on the number of reactions specified within the reaction file, there may be more than one of these tabs. The additional sections will be numbered Rn, where n is the number of the first reaction on that page. For example, if the reaction file contains 5 reactions, the first 3 may appear on the R1 page, then the next page will be labelled R4.

The amount information displayed per reaction will depend on user selection for Display Extra Information.

Data Sections

A description of the variables for each individual Reaction is given here.

Tag (Long/Short) Input / Calc / Option Description
There will be one block displayed here for each reaction specified in the rct file.
On Tick box Allows the individual reaction be switched on/off.
Reaction Display This displays the actual reaction in the reaction file. This is a standard tagged object and hence it can be copied and pasted and used in reports, etc.
Sequence Display Format of information display: [Sequence Number] ([number] of [total number] of reactions solved simultaneously).
For Example:
  1. If a single number is displayed this means the reaction is sequential and the number stands for the order in which it is reacted.
  2. If the field displays something like this: 2 (1 of 3 Sim), then it means the reaction will solve in sequence 2, and it is part of a set of 3 simultaneous reactions.
Comment Display Available from Build 139.34068. Shows the comment entered in the Reaction Editor.
State Display Shows the status of the individual reaction.
Index Display Reaction Index. Useful for sorting the reactions in reports

Extent.Description / Extent.Desc Display The method by which the reaction is controlled and the species that is used for the control. For example: Fractional Extent: FeSO4(aq) means that the user defines the fraction of FeSO4(aq) (which is a Reactant) that must react.
Extent.ShortDesc Display A shorter version of the Extent.Description. For example: Frac: FeSO4(aq) means that the user defines the fraction of FeSO4(aq) (which is a Reactant) that must react.
Extent.Type Strict The unit will display a warning if the Achieved extent does NOT match the required extent.
NB, for simultaneous reactions, user should change this to Target. See also Hints and Comments.
Target The unit will NOT display a warning if the achieved extent is different from the required extent, i.e. the required extent is a target only, it is not essential that it is achieved.
<Default> The individual reaction will use the overall Extent Type (Strict or Target) specified in Settings on the main RB tab.
Extent.Species Display Shows the species that is used for the extent control.

Reaction Extent Data Fields

The following fields will change depending on the Extent type chosen for the reaction in the reaction file (the user cannot change the extent type in the Access Window). Each type is described individually.
Notes:

  1. For each type the required extent may be the value specified in the reaction file (Rct), or the user may change the extent in SysCAD (Set), in which case the field background colour will change to Yellow. If '*' is entered here, default value as specified in the reaction file will be used.
  2. If any species is a Reactant and it has LockUp, then the locked up portion is NOT be available for reaction, unless IgnoreLockup has been enabled. In this case the Achieved or Actual results are based on the unlocked portion only.
  3. If the reaction is part of a simultaneous set of reactions, then the required extent might not be achieved individually.
