Step by Step Description

The Sed.eff Sed~eff~ program is composed of three scripts. The program will run Sedeff.script1 when n is 3, Sedeff.script2 when n is 4 and Sedeff.script3 when n is 5. Because the most common number of sedimentation tanks is three, the output of Sedeff.script1 will be described below.
