Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Introducing various operating modes in detail, Batch Distillation: Simulation, Optimal Design, And Control examines the challenges involved in a rigorous modeling of batch distillation column dynamics, and describes optimal control problems. The text discusses the design or operation of specialty chemical processes as well as errors and perils associated with numerical models solved by computers. A derived equation is supplied with each model discussed along with a table that breaks down the model into assumptions, composition calculation equations, flow rate equations, heavy duty calculations, and thermodynamic models.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Basic modes of operation -- Column dynamics -- Simplified models -- Optimization -- Optimal control problems -- Complex systems and columns.
