A dilatometric technique is reported for studying simultaneous mixing and reaction as a function of time in batch systems. Volume‐averaged fractional conversion is determined from small volume changes without sampling or flow disturbances. Data are obtained for very fast and intermediate speed reactions in a turbulent, unbaffled, stirred laboratory reactor.
