Click For Summary
To calculate Dmax for the flow injection analysis (FIA) apparatus with a 300uL injection volume, a mass balance approach may be appropriate, focusing on dilution and mixing principles. The user is seeking guidance on the correct formula or method to use, indicating a lack of clarity in their lecture notes. The discussion emphasizes the need for understanding how the injected sample interacts with the sample stream line without dilution. Further insights or references to relevant equations are requested to aid in the calculation. The conversation highlights the importance of grasping the fundamental concepts of dispersion in FIA systems.

Homework Statement




Heres the question asked:


Consider the above FIA apparatus. Calculate the Dmax (as seen by the detector) for the apparatus assuming that a 300uL injection volume results in no dilution (dispersion) of the injected sample by the sample stream line in this system.

I know you guys can't see the apparatus picture , but i just want to know the right formula to use or someone to lead me to the right direction. Cant find anything in my lecture notes.



Thanks in advance.

Perhaps just a simple mass balance (as in dilution & mixing) will suffice. But that's just a stab in the dark.
