Modeling, Control and Inversion of Multi-Phase Equilibrium Reactor Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a simplified modeling approach for multi-phase reactor systems. The model can be used to determine system characteristics, explore parameter sensitivity and test control strategies. The model is based on the thermodynamic equilibrium assumption and invariant inventories to make it computationally inexpensive. We show that the control approach based on the overall inventories of the system can be effectively used for improved performance of such reactor systems. A multi-phase reactor system the vapor recovery reactor used in carbothermic aluminum reduction process is considered to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed modeling and control approach.

Improvement of Methanol Synthesis Process through a Novel Sorption-Enhanced Fluidized-bed Reactor, Part I: Mathematical Modeling
In the first part of two section paper, a mathematical model of the fluidized bed reactor in the presence of in-situ water adsorbent for methanol synthesis is assessed. The bubbling two-phase regime is applied to model the fluidization concept. The binary adsorbent and catalyst particles system can be separated from each other based on their density difference. The heavy catalyst particles tend...

In this research, Fischer Tropsch synthesis (FTS) has been modeled in the fixed bed chromatographic reactor for the first time by applying a rather complex dispersed plug flow model for fluid phase and linear driving force (LDF) model for adsorbent. Model equations are dynamic, multi-component, non-linear and heterogeneous including reaction and adsorption simultaneously Complex kinetics fo...

This paper concerns the problem of output consensus in nonlinear non-minimum phase systems. The main contribution of the paper is to guarantee achieving consensus in the presence of unstable zero dynamics. To achieve this goal, an output redefinition method is proposed. The new outputs of agents are functions of original outputs and internal states and defined such that the dynamics of agents a...
