dilution: Draws dilution culture setup

Description

Draws the framework of a dilution culture. Used as a template to plot the flow diagrams for dilution-type models, where there is a continuous inflow of medium from a vessel into a well-stirred tank (the culture vessel). The volume in the culture tank stays constant.

Usage

dilution(main = c("",""), int = "")

Value

a list containing:

p1

two-valued vector with the x-y positions of the middle of the (large) culture vessel

p2

two-valued vector with the x-y positions of the middle of the (small) medium vessel

Arguments

main

main text, consiting of two strings, positioned above medium vessel (1st string) and culture vessel (2nd string) of dilution diagram plot

int

text above the dripping outlets
