Residence time distribution (RTD) provides information about average hydraulic residence time and the distribution of material in the reactor. A method for determining RTD for reactors with very short hydraulic residence times is deconvolution based on extraction of real RTD by the analysis of a non-ideal input signal. The mean residence time and dispersion were determined for the spinning fluids reactor (SFR). For the first time the deconvolution method was performed for a system where the tracer pulse signal is wider than actual RTD of the examined device. A prediction model for of the SFR was also developed, and validated.
