Abstract
The correlation between the radial heterogeneity of a column and the tailing of the elution profiles of chromatographic peaks was studied using a numerical method. A parabolic distribution of the linear flow velocity of the mobile phase and of the column efficiency in the radial direction were assumed. Moment analysis showed that peak tailing takes place under such experimental conditions and that it increases with increasing range of radial variations of the flow velocity and the column efficiency. It was also found that the higher the column efficiency, the larger the effect of a given degree of radial heterogeneity on the extent of peak tailing. Peak tailing behavior of columns having different efficiencies could be correlated with each other by an equation. Some characteristic features of tailing peaks were analyzed in connection with the column radial heterogeneity.
