Tracer Input Curve

The document shows a tracer input curve representing the concentration of a tracer entering a vessel over time, along with the residence time distribution curve of the vessel which represents the distribution of residence times of particles within the vessel. The area under both curves is equal, representing the principle that the amount of tracer entering the vessel equals the amount leaving when the system reaches steady state.
