TLDR
In this article, the authors proposed a method to predict the distribution of residence-times in large systems by using distribution-functions for residencetimes, which can be used to calculate the etficiencies of reactors and blenders.

Aggregate Diffusion Model Applied to Soil Vapor Extraction in Unidirectional and Radial Flows

TL;DR: An aggregate diffusion model for soil vapor extraction is applied in this paper, which accounts for the diffusion within water-saturated aggregates and convective diffusion in air-filled macropores.

A review of existing mixing indices in solid-based continuous blending operations

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed review, classification and comparison of existing mixing indices are used to evaluate mixing in a periodic section of blender using discrete element method (DEM) and the effects of process parameters, like blade speed, on mixing are further investigated.

The Definition and Measurement of Some Characteristics of Mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the important features of such mixtures can be expressed by two statistically defined quantities, the scale and the intensity of segregation, and methods of measuring these are suggested.
