Fig. 7From: Advanced integration of fluid dynamics and photosynthetic reaction kinetics for microalgae culture systemsSimulated and experimental results of the flashing light enhancement phenomenon. Left picture shows experimental data reprinted from [14]. Two curves of Oxygen evolution rate vs. L-D cycles period are tagged with the ratio of light-to-dark interval L:D. Right: the normalized performance index J vs. Da, for larger mixing rate (i.e., lower Da - bigger Re), we get better performance J approaching its maximal theoretical value corresponding to the growth in averaged continuous light, cf. (12). Red circles represents simulation results of the whole non-reduced system (7) or (8) gained for time range 0 - 20000 s, with time step 0.1 sBack to article page
