Answers:
Conversion reactor is the one where you directly specify the conversion percentage where as in PFR and CSTR you specify the rate law.
Which one to use when will depend on the data that you have while simulating. Lets you you have only conversion %, then you use conversion reactor where as if you have the rate law for the reaction, then you can use CSTR or PFR.
