The paper is focused on a theoretical analysis of the function of continuous flow mixer with the so-called gamma-distribution of fluid residence times, used as a linear filter smoothing undesirable fluctuations of input properties. A relation is derived expressing the degree of smoothing of the signal passing through the system, as a function of statistical parameters of this signal and of gamma-distribution of fluid-residence times in the mixer. The analysis of this relation leads to conclusions concerning the prediction of the operation of smoothing mixers or the design of their basic parameters.

An attempt is made here to describe distribution of residence times of a fluid in a nonideal flow mixer for turbulent flow of the charge, i.e. for the case when the flow velocity exhibits random fluctuations. The analysis is based on the assumption that the flow of fluid in mixer may be considered as a stationary Markov's process and is aimed at application of the mixer as a linear filter.

A series of photochemical transformations has been successfully conducted under continuous-flow conditions in a concentrating solar trough reactor. Photoacylations and [2+2]-photocycloadditions involving 1,4-naphthoquinones gave the corresponding photoproducts in moderate to high yields with residence times of 70min. Likewise, acetone-sensitized photodecarboxylations involving phthalimides furnished the corresponding benzylated hydroxy phthalimidines in good to excellent yields and purity with residence times of 40min. Compared with corresponding exposures to direct sunlight conducted in a solar float, flow operation generally gave superior conversions and subsequent yields.

AbstractLet u be a random signal with realisations in an infinite-dimensional vector space X and υ an associated observable random signal with realisations in a finite-dimensional subspace Y ⊆ X. We seek a pointwise-best estimate of u using a bounded linear filter on the observed data vector υ. When x is a finite-dimensional Euclidean space and the covariance matrix for υ is nonsingular, it is known that the best estimate û of u is given by a standard matrix expression prescribing a linear mean-square filter. For the infinite-dimensional Hilbert space problem we show that the matrix expression must be replaced by an analogous but more general expression using bounded linear operators. The extension procedure depends directly on the theory of the Bochner integral and on the construction of appropriate HilbertSchmidt operators. An extended example is given.

A definition of “closer” and “closest” as applied to estimates of statistical parameters is given, and it is shown that we can sometimes prove that estimates properly derived from sufficient statistics are the closest possible.The scaling of a gamma distribution, and the location and scaling of an exponential distribution and of a rectangular distribution are discussed in detail, and the closest estimates of the parameters obtained.
