Hello Everyone,
I am using species transport model for simulating my chemical reaction.

there are two reactants which reacts and forms two products.
Reactant_1+Reactant_2<-->Product_1+Product_2.

From my experimental investigation I have feed flow rate of reactant_1 and reactant_2 in kg/s. and both reactants are going inside the cylinder at the same time.

Geometry is cylindrical with one inlet and outlet.

I have few questions to implement this on FLUENT.
(1) I have one inlet and i can give mass flow rate but I dont know which mass flow rate i have to consider(reactant_1 or reactant_2).
(2) If i am using reactant_1 mass flow rate and will give mass fraction/mole fraction in species panel (for reactant_1 and reactant_2), is it the right way of doing it?
(3) Do I have to provide two different inlets and give feed flow rate of each reactant with mole fraction of each as 1 individually and for other as 0?
