An analytical solution of these mass-transfer equations for linear equilibrium was found by Thomas [36] for fixed bed operations. The Thomas solution can be further simplified if one assumes an infinitely small feed pulse (or feed arc in case of annular chromatography), and if the number of transfer units (n = k0azlu) is greater then five. The resulting approximate expression (Sherwood et al. [37]) is...

The authors thank Geoff Maitland, Thomas Geehan, Otto Houwen, John Sherwood, Chris Hall, Edmund Fordham, Gerry Meeten, Phil Fletcher, Patrick Tomkins, and Sarah Pelham for many discussions on drilling fluids over many years. The authors would also like to thank Peter Bern (British Petroleum) for advice and discussion of his work. 

This, then, was the man who developed the program in chemical engineering so boldly outlined by Little and Walker. He surrounded himself from the beginning with men of promise in their respective fields. These included William McAdams, Clark Robinson, Robert Haslam, Walter Whitman, Harold Weber, and William Ryan, who unfortunately died in 1933. Robinson died in the late 1940 s, Haslam in the early 1960 s and Whitman, Lewis, and McAdams in the early 1970 s. During the period from the mid-1920 s to World War II, Ernst Hauser, Hoyt Hottel, Thomas Sherwood, Edwin CilUland, Herman Meissner, Glenn Williams, and Edward Vivian would be added. These men formed the framework on which the present staff was built.
