Hello, 

 

Hypothetically, I have an open system where fluid (water) is flowing into a reservoir and exiting the reservoir at the same rate. The reservoir contains a solute of interest. I would like to know if it's appropriate to use the dilution ventilation equation (http://en.wikipedia....ution_(equation)) to determine how much of the solute is left after time, t. 

 

Assume that the solute is completely miscible with water, what would be an appropriate value for k, the mixing factor? Is there a reference where I can get an idea of mixing factor for certain type of solutes?

 

If this equation is inappropriate for this situation, please advise on the correct model with reference. Thanks.
