Greetings to all:
I have a question about gas partial pressure.
A reactor chamber with 3 different gasses flowing in at constant flow rate, and the chamber pressure is kept constant at 3T with throttle valve. All these while, the chamber is pumped down with a pump of 300 CFM, now our facility wants to replace that 300 CFM pump with a 700 CFM pump. If the gases flow rate into the chamber are unchanged, the pressure is maintained at 3T by the throttle valve, do you think the partial pressure of each individual gas will be different between the 300 vs 700 CFM pump? Kindly advice. Do you think the bigger pump will leave the reactor consist mostly of smaller sized molecules? Thank you.
