Term Tab

The Term Tab provides definitions of mathematical expressions that are used as intermediate terms in the expressions for the chemical reaction/equilibrium model.

The Expression Builder button in the Term tab can be used to build mathematical expression of all the terms. A mathematical expression is comprised of terms, species (species concentrations), parameters, constants, keywords, and mathematical functions and operators.

Field Description
Term Term ID is the identifying name given to the term.
Expression The Expression is a mathematical expression involving species, parameters, constants, hydraulic variables or other terms.
Description Description of the meaning or usage of the expression term. 

The keywords include: D (Pipe diameter), Re (Renolds number), Kc (Pipe roughness coefficient), Q (Pipe flow or tank net outlet flow), U (Flow velocity), Us (Pipe shear velocity), Ff (DarcyWeisbach friction factor), Av (Surface Area/Unit volume), and Le (Tank water level) Mathematical functions and operators include:
