Definition

control capability to carry out control of flow rate

Examples

  • capability to control buffer flow rate during chromatography column equilibration; capability to adjust feed solution flow rate in a fed-batch fermentation process; capability to maintain consistent gas flow rate in a bioreactor sparging system; capability to modulate liquid flow rate in an ultrafiltration unit; capability to regulate mobile phase flow rate during chromatography column elution

Counter-Examples

  • capability to measure flow rate passively without adjusting it; capability to maintain structural integrity of a pipe during fluid transfer

Primitive Class

This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.

Primitive Rationale

There are insufficient constructs in the ontology to create necessary and sufficient conditions.
