dilution: Draws dilution culture setup

Description

Draws the framework of a dilution culture. Used as a template to plot the flow diagrams for dilution-type models, where there is a continuous inflow of medium from a vessel into a well-stirred tank (the culture vessel). The volume in the culture tank stays constant.

Usage

dilution(main=c("",""),int="")

Arguments

main

main text, consiting of two strings, positioned above medium vessel (1st string) and culture vessel (2nd string) of dilution diagram plot

int

text above the dripping outlets

Value

• a list containing:
• p1
  two-valued vector with the x-y positions of the middle of the (large) culture vessel
• p2
  two-valued vector with the x-y positions of the middle of the (small) medium vessel

Examples

par(mar=c(0,0,0,0))                         
dd<-dilution(main=c("Stock","Stirred tank"),int="Flow,Q")
