Studies concerning the deviation from ideal plug flow conditions

9 Studies concerning the deviation from ideal plug flow conditions 

The Peclet number is regarded as a parameter to define the extent of axial dispersion. It can successfully explain the two extremes of 

An estimate of the Pe number can be obtained from an RTD measurement, that is, variance of residence times in the experiment. Empirical correlation giving the Pe number as a function of liquid Re (and possibly other dimensionless numbers) is also
