What is the complete derivation of the nonhomogeneous fluid flow rate equation?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the derivation of the nonhomogeneous fluid flow rate equation as presented in Devendra K. Chaturvedi's book. Participants seek clarification on the integration steps leading to the general solution, specifically the completion of the equation involving the natural logarithm. The equation presented shows the relationship between concentration over time, factoring in flow rate and volume. A key point is the agreement that the logarithmic expression simplifies to match the right side of the equation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of completing the derivation for clarity and accuracy.

does anyone know the derivation of the general solution of the nonhomogeneous equation shown in the image (book name: Devendra K. Chaturvedi - Modeling and Simulation of Systems Using MATLAB and Simulink -CRC Press (2010))

This is basic calculus.
\begin{split}<br /> \frac{dC}{dt} &amp;= \frac{F}{V}(C_0 - C) \\<br /> \int \frac{1}{C_0 - C}\frac{dC}{dt} \,dt &amp;= \int \frac{F}{V}\,dt \\<br /> \int \frac1{C-C_0}\,dC &amp;= \ln |k| - \frac{F}{V}t \\<br /> \ln |C - C_0| &amp;= \\<br /> C(t) &amp;= C_0 + ke^{-Ft/V}.\end{split} (We can drop the absolute value signs since C - C_0 and k must have the same sign.)
 
in your derivation you didn't complete this step ln|C-Co|= ? KINDLY write the complete equation

It equals the same as the right side of the line above it: ##\ln |k| - \frac{F}{V}t##.
 
Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'
My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'
I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
