Numerical values of the cumulative residence time distribution in a continuous flow stirred tank reactor are commonly required. It is shown in the paper that the above distribution is easily transformed into a Chi‐squared distribution. This provides a fast easy way of obtaining the desired values from readily available statistical tables.
