Solution Plots Growth
In the plot process variables, the graphs show the temperature and total solvent and antisolvent mass profile, respectively.
The temperature graph can be separated into three regions:
Region I: strong linear decrease of temperature
Region II: constant temperature
Region III: lower linear decrease of temperature
The total mass stays constant throughout the process.
Region I:
Region II:
Region III:
Region I:
Region II:
Region III: balance according to the following relation
where all of the time the decrease in the denominator prevails over the decrease in the nominator.
In this plot the concentration is shown dependent on the temperature. Basically, the information from the concentration and supersaturation plot are respresented in one plot. The three regions mentioned above can be recognized again.
In this plot, the 0-th and 3-rd moment of the distribution and the volume average length are plotted. The moments are defined as
and the volume average length is defined as
