Abstract

The invention relates to a process and an apparatus for determining the heat output rate in a reactor. This is achieved by determining the heat output rate in a sensor connected to the chemical reactor and taking into account the volume or mass ratio between the reactor and sensor contents. The apparatus allows balancing of the sensor, on the one hand, and continuous adjustment of the material composition and temperature of the reactor and sensor contents, on the other hand.
