SUMMARY

The discussion clarifies the distinction between the variables dx/dt and dy/dt in the context of a mixing process. Specifically, dy/dt represents the accumulation of salt in the tank, while dx/dt does not. The concentration of the output stream, denoted as y, consistently reflects the concentration within the tank. This understanding is crucial for accurately modeling fluid dynamics in systems involving mixing and concentration changes.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic calculus, particularly derivatives.
  • Familiarity with fluid dynamics concepts.
  • Knowledge of mixing processes in chemical engineering.
  • Ability to interpret differential equations.
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the principles of fluid dynamics in chemical engineering.
  • Learn about differential equations and their applications in modeling systems.
  • Explore the concept of mass balance in mixing processes.
  • Investigate the role of concentration gradients in fluid flow.
USEFUL FOR

Students and professionals in chemical engineering, fluid dynamics researchers, and anyone involved in modeling mixing processes in various applications.

It is incorrect because dx/dt is not the accumulation of salt in the tank. dy/dt is.

Thts what I am asking whynt it ain't the accumulation term; verbally explain please
 
y is the concentration of the output stream always. Which is also the concentration in the tank always in a mixing process. y always represents the concentration inside the tank and x does not. See what I mean?
