Slurry Yield at 99% target slurry yield: a worked example

This scenario runs the slurry yield calculation on the strong side: 99% target slurry yield, with every other input held at its documented default. Use it when a lab, pilot line, or production mixer needs to quantify losses from viscosity adjustment, filtration, coating trials, transfer loss, or out-of-spec solids content.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Accepted slurry mass: 760 kg (unchanged)
  • Total prepared slurry mass: 800 kg (unchanged)
  • Target slurry yield: 99 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 96)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Slurry yield rate = accepted slurry mass ÷ total prepared slurry mass × 100) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 95 % for slurry yield rate, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 4 points for slurry yield gap to target.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 760 count for accepted slurry mass.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 800 count for total prepared slurry mass.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where target slurry yield sits at 96% and the headline result is 95 %, this scenario lands almost exactly on the baseline at 95 %.
  • Use it at end of batch or end of shift to gauge mixing-line stability and quantify rework against a yield target. Treat this as a target state: the delta against the baseline quantifies what the improvement is worth before you commit to chasing it.

Results at a glance

  • Slurry yield rate: 95 % (headline result)
  • Slurry yield gap to target: 4 points
  • Accepted slurry mass: 760 count
  • Total prepared slurry mass: 800 count
