Time derivative, total

The terms may be quantities or rates of flow of material or enthalpy. Inputs and outputs are streams that cross the vessel boundaries. A heat of reaction within the vessel is a. source. A depletion of reactant in the vessel is a. sink. Accumulation is the time derivative of the content of the reference quantity in the vessel of the volume times the concentration, 3V C /df, or of the total enthalpy of the vessel contents, d[WCfT-T,i)]/dt. 

In a closed system the rate of reaction is properly defined by a total time derivative of the concentration, if concentration is based on the closed total volume of the system or on a volume liquid of constant density. 

The definition of turnover time is total burden within a reservoir divided by the flux out of that reservoir - in symbols, t = M/S (see Chapter 4). A typical value for the flux of non-seasalt sulfate (nss-SOl"") to the ocean surface via rain is 0.11 g S/m per year (Galloway, 1985). Using this value, we may consider the residence time of nss-S04 itself and of total non-seasalt sulfur over the world oceans. Appropriate vertical column burdens (derived from the data review of Toon et ai, 1987) are 460 fxg S/m for nss-801 and 1700 jig S/m for the sum of DMS, SO2, and nss-S04. These numbers yield residence times of about 1.5 days for nss-S04 and 5.6 days for total non-seasalt sulfur. We might infer that the oxidation process is frequently... 

Equations (1.1) to (1.3) are diflerent ways of expressing the overall mass balance for a flow system with variable inventory. In steady-state flow, the derivatives vanish, the total mass in the system is constant, and the overall mass balance simply states that input equals output. In batch systems, the flow terms are zero, the time derivative is zero, and the total mass in the system remains constant. We will return to the general form of Equation (1.3) when unsteady reactors are treated in Chapter 14. Until then, the overall mass balance merely serves as a consistency check on more detailed component balances that apply to individual substances. 

Since m is the mass of solid remaining at time t, the quantity m/m0 is the fraction undissolved at time t. The time to total dissolution (m/m0 = 0) of all the particles is easily derived. Equation (49) is the classic cube root law still presented in most pharmaceutics textbooks. The reader should note that the cube root law derivation begins with misapplication of the expression for flux from a slab (Cartesian coordinates) to describe flux from a sphere. The error that results is insignificant as long as r0 8. 

The FOX assay applied to a skatole oxidation product isolated by HPLC gave a positive result, supporting the contention that it is skatolyl hydroperoxide (40) . Mixtures of 183 and the eight diastereoisomeric hydroperoxides 184 and 185 derived from thymidine (42), as shown in equation 64, can be separated and detected by RP-HPLC with UVD at 229 nm. Each isomer is determined by applying the FOX assay using a capillary reactor heated at 60 °C to provide sufficient time for total oxidation of the Fe(ll) ions, followed by UVD at 596 mn . A commercial kit based on the FOX assay for hydroperoxide determination in plasma, serum and tissue homogenizates appears in Table 2. 

We first derive a relation for total mass conservation. Consider an arbitrary volume V enclosed in a surface Q. The mass inside the volume is JpdV, where p is density (in kg/m ) and dt is an infinitesimal volume in the volume V. The time derivative of the mass in the volume (i.e., the rate of the variation of the mass with time) is... 

A set of first-order field equations was proposed by Hertz [53-55], who substituted the partial time derivatives in Maxwell s equations by total time derivatives... 

Consider a fluid element of constant mass pAxAyAz moving along with the local fluid velocity v. The x component of momentum of this fluid element is pvxAxAyAz. The momentum of the fluid element as it moves along with the local fluid velocity is a function of both space and time. The total derivative of the momentum of the fluid element with respect to time is then pAxAyAz Dvx/Dt). According to Newton s second law this quantity is to be equated to the forces acting on the element of mass the net force in the x direction due to the difference in pressure on faces a and b, which is [p x)AyAz — p(x + Ax)AyAz], the net force in the x direction due to the difference in the viscous stresses,2 which is... 

During this time, the total synthesis of several marine sulfur-containing natural products cited in this review has been reported and they confirmed the suggested structures. This is the case of the synthesis of some sulfonoceramides (e.g. flavocristamide A (318) discussed in the sulfonic acid and their derivatives section [366], and the synthesis of the thiazole-containing compounds bistratamide D (381) [367], trunkamide (388) [368], mollamide (393) [369], dolastatin I (409) [370], and virenamide B (414) [371]. 

In contrast to Clausius, Gibbs did not discuss uncompensated heat, as he started directly with the total differential of entropy. Gibbs presentation appealed very much to De Donder, However, he wanted to find the meaning of this mysterious uncompensated heat. He considered a system whose physical conditions, such as pressure and temperature, were uniform and which was closed to the flow of matter. Chemical reactions, however, could go on inside the system. De Donder first introduced what he called the degree of advancement, , of the chemical reaction so that the reaction rate v is the time derivative of . 

If one adopts McLennan s [78b] interpretation, then Eq. (21) is a realization of a standard theorem of Newtonian mechanics conservation of total energy = conservation of kinetic plus potential energy (see, e.g., Chap. 4 of Kleppner and Kolenkow, [80]). The reason is simple Coulomb electric force is central, then work is path independent, and total energy is function of position only. The time derivative of total energy is of course zero, as in Eq. (21). In this interpretation Qp and Qi are manifestations of kinetic energy. 

Once the cosmic abundance ratios are chosen, one can solve the coupled kinetic equations in a variety of approximations to determine the concentrations of the species in the model as functions of the total gas density. Division of the concentrations by the total gas density utilized in the calculation then yields the relative concentrations or abundances. The simplest approximation is the steady-state treatment, in which the time derivatives of all the concentrations are set equal to zero. In this approximation, the coupled differential equations become coupled algebraic equations and are much easier to solve. This was the approach used by Herbst and Klemperer (1973) and by later investigators such as Mitchell, Ginsburg, and Kuntz (1978). In more recent years, however, improvements in computers and computational methods have permitted modelers to solve the differential equations directly as a function of initial abundances (e.g. atoms). Prasad and Huntress (1980 a, b) pioneered this approach and demonstrated that it takes perhaps 107 yrs for a cloud to reach steady state assuming that the physical conditions of a cloud remain constant. Once steady state is reached, the results for specific molecules are not different from those calculated earlier via the steady-state approximation if the same reaction set is utilized. Both of these approaches typically although not invariably yield calculated abundances at steady-state in order-of-magnitude agreement with observation for the smaller interstellar molecules. 

Conversely, for low stress states/longer time periods, the time derivative components are negligible and the dashpot can be effectively removed from the system - an open circuit. As a result, only the spring connected in parallel to the dashpot will contribute to the total strain in the system [23-26],...
