3. Residence time distribution in ideal reactors
3.1 Piston reactor
As already mentioned, the piston reactor behaves like a pure delay, i.e. the same disturbance occurs at the outlet as at the inlet, with a delay equal to the average residence time of the fluids in the reactor.
Denoting the Dirac impulse by δ (t ), the residence time distribution function takes the form :
