Different Approaches to Chemical Exothermic Batch Reactor Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents some different methods for a chemical exothermic batch reactor control. A mathematical model including reaction kinetics was used to simulate a real process. The process chemical reaction is strongly exothermic so the in-reactor temperature is rising very fast due to reaction component dosing. Thus, the temperature control is necessary. The system is nonlinear because of chemical reaction kinetics, so its control is generally difficult by common methods.

متن کاملControl of Exothermic Batch Process using Multivariable Genetic Algorithm
The aim of this research is to control the reactor temperature of an exothermic batch process. During the process, large amount of heat will be released rapidly when the reactants are mixed together. The exothermic behaviour causes the reaction to become unstable and consequently poses safety concern to the plant personnel. In practice, heat is needed to speed up the reaction rate so that the o...
