in this article several control schemes for a pilot scale polymerization reactor are proposed and one of them is selected as the most suitable design. the performances of proposed schemes have been compared through computer simulations. the controllers are pid and chosen reaction is polymerization of methyl methacrylate which is highly exothermic.

Exothermic batch reactions are highly nonlinear and complex processes. During the mixing of the chemical reactants, a sudden and unpredictable heat is released causing exothermic reaction. As a result, the runaway reaction may affect the product quality and pose safety problem to the system. Therefore, it is crucial to control the reactor temperature during the process. Often, good controller r...

In this paper, we explore the emergence and direct interaction of two different types of dissipative structure in a single system: self-replicating chemical spot patterns and buoyancyinduced convection rolls. A new Lattice Boltzmann Model is developed, capable of simulating fluid flow, heat transport, and thermal chemical reactions, all within a simple, efficient framework. We report on a first...

diels–alder [2+4] cycloaddition products of the reaction between c20 and c4h4x2 or c2o2x2 (x = h, f, cl, ch3, nh2, no2, and oh) were studied atb3lyp level of theory with 6-31g, 6-31g(d, p) and 6-311g(d, p) basis sets. the homo–lumo gaps of kohn–sham orbitals for most of the adducts show evident increase compared with the gap value of c20, suggestive of more stability in the adducts. the thermod...

separation and capture of carbon dioxide from the flue gas of power plants in order to reduceenvironmental damages has always been of interest to researchers. in this study, aqueous solution ofmethylamine was used as an absorbent for co2 capture. in order to study this reaction, densityfunctional theory (dft) was employed at the level of b3lyp/6-311++g(d,p) by using theconductor-like polarizabl...

Metal/fluoropolymer composites are a category of energetic structural materials that release energy through exothermic chemical reactions initiated under highly dynamic loadings. In this paper, the chemical reaction mechanism of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene)/Ti/W composites is investigated through thermal analysis and composition analysis. These composites undergo exothermic reactions at 510 °...
