Value of Peclet number = 0, is the representative of ____________________?
Correct answer: B. Complete back mixing
- A. Laminar flow
- B. Complete back mixing
- C. Plug flow
- D. Eddy diffusivity = 0
Explanation
The Peclet number compares convective transport with axial dispersion. Pe = 0 means dispersion dominates completely, corresponding to complete back mixing rather than plug flow.
