Random residence time distribution
Chemical Engineering Science, 1986Abstract A discrete stochastic mixing model for chemical reactors is presented. The model is particularly useful to study the statistics of RTD and of the output concentration in a chemical reactor. Some computations of confidence intervals of concentration using information about the stochastic nature of flow are presented.

Distribution and Expected Time of Residence for U.S. Households
Risk Analysis, 1992For risk assessments, the average current residence time (time since moving into current residence) has often been used as a surrogate for the average total residence time (time between moving into and out of a residence). Since the distributions of the two quantities are not necessarily the same, neither are their averages.

Residence time distributions in mills
Cement and Concrete Research, 1971Abstract The determination of mean residence time is a powerful method for studying the hold-up in a cement mill, and hence whether the mill is operating in the required steel to clinker ratio. To determine the mean residence time accurately it is necessary to correct for the recycle of tracer, and a method of correction is given.

Understanding Residence Time, Residence Time Distribution, and Impact of Surge Vessels
2020Axial dispersion and residence time distribution (RTD) have significant process implications in the design of continuous processes. Low dispersion is better for minimizing time for complete reaction and minimizing deviation boundaries. High dispersion is better for dampening out process fluctuations or disturbances.

Residence Time Distribution Model for Soil Filters
Water Environment Research, 2004Pulse tracer tests were carried out to determine the residence time distribution (RTD) in earthworm‐cultured and uncultured, laboratory‐scale soil filters. A two‐parallel‐cell dispersion model for the mixing behavior in soil filters is presented; the model showed excellent fit to experimental data.

Measurement of residence times and residence-time distributions
1986It is not the intention of this chapter to treat exhaustively the theory of residence-time measurements; there are many excellent textbooks on the subject1,2. A brief review of ideal and non-ideal models, together with an indication of how the more important parameters of the models may be calculated, is sufficient for our purposes.

RESIDENCE TIME DISTRIBUTIONS AND MICROMIXING
Chemical Engineering Communications, 1981Abstract This review is concerned primarily with the Lagrangian approach to mixing. First, the concepts of residence time and residence time distribution are introduced and defined. After a general treatment of this topic in the second chapter, the concept of micromixing is discussed in the third chapter with due emphasis on the application to chemical

Perspectives in residence-time distributions
Chemical Engineering Science, 1983Abstract A short history is given of the development of interest in residence-time distributions. Attention is concentrated on the role played in this development by Danckwerts' 1953 paper [6]. This defined the residence-time functions in the form now customarily used, and much subsequent development remains based on the approaches laid out in [6 ...

Residence time distribution in submerged biofilters
Water Research, 1980Abstract A mathematical model is presented for the residence time distribution in a submerged denitrification filter, in which pronounced tailing is experienced due to hold-up in the biofilm. Experiments with a dye tracer, Eosine-Y, and with Tritium show that adsorption of the dye makes it impossible to determine biofilm characteristics.
