The exit age distribution of fluid leaving a vessel is used to know the__________________?

Correct answer: C. Extent of non-ideal flow in the vessel

  • A. Activation energies of a reaction
  • B. Reaction mechanism
  • C. Extent of non-ideal flow in the vessel
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The exit age distribution, or residence-time distribution, shows how long fluid elements remain in the vessel. Its departure from the ideal CSTR or plug-flow pattern measures the extent of non-ideal flow.
