The Rodrigues equation is an equation used in chromatography to describe the efficiency of a bed of permeable (large-pore) particles. It is thus an extension of Van Deemter's equation. It was developed by Alirio E. Rodrigues et al..[1]
Equation
The equation is:
[math]\displaystyle{ HETP = A + \frac{B}{u} + C \cdot f( \lambda ) \cdot u }[/math]
Where
- HETP is the height equivalent to a theoretical plate
- A = Eddy diffusion
- B = Longitudinal diffusion
- C = Resistance to mass transfer
- u = Flow rate
- [math]\displaystyle{ f( \lambda ) = \frac{3}{ \lambda } \left [ \frac{1}{\tanh( \lambda )} - \frac{1}{ \lambda } \right ] }[/math]
- [math]\displaystyle{ \lambda }[/math] = Intraparticular Péclet number
