Carbon monoxide poisoning is potentially fatal. Carbon monoxide sensors can provide alarms for buildup in areas where there is a likely source of emission such as from a flame source or internal combustion engine. In this situation, a 200 square foot room with 9 foot high ceilings has a 0.01 L/sec leak of CO gas. The air in the room is assumed to be well mixed and at constant temperature (300 K). Additionally, the volume and number of moles of gas in the room is constant. There are no open windows or doors but the gas that is added to the room displaces some of the well-mixed air out of the room.

Below is a video tutorial that demonstrates how to predict the time evolving concentration of CO in parts per million in the room. A material balance on the CO gas entering, accumulating, and leaving the room volume is performed. This material balance results in a differential equation. An exact solution is obtained through a method of separation and integration, Laplace transforms, and with a numerical solver. Numerical solution is performed with MATLAB and Python. Example files are available for download below.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is potentially fatal.
