For a tubular reactor with space time 'τ' and residence time 'θ', the following statement holds good.
τ and θ are always equal.
τ = θ , when the fluid density changes in the reactor.
τ = θ , for an isothermic tubular reactor in which the density of the process fluid is constant.
τ = θ , for a non-isothermal reactor.
