Abstract

This paper explores the application of first-order linear differential equations to model the mixing process in carbonated beverage production. Through mathematical analysis, the study examines how variations in input and output flows affect the concentration of ingredients over time. The results offer a clearer understanding of the dynamics involved, proving useful for quality control during production. While the model demonstrates mathematical accuracy, the importance of adjusting it with experimental data is recognized to enhance precision and reduce simulation errors. This approach provides a solid foundation for better understanding ingredient behavior in the production process.
