Structural Analysis in the Dynamical Modelling of Chemical Engineering Systems

From MaRDI portal





A general framework that can help to organize the mathematical model of (bio)chemical processes in a transparent way and to analyze efficiently its solvability properties is proposed. The considered modelling approach is foremost intended for modelling of biochemical processes in which material and energy exchange play a predominant role. The standard model representation and the generalized model representation based on conservation laws, classifications of variables and equations, and assumptions on completeness are suggested. The investigation resulted in a method for structuring the model equations and, in a set of analysis and symbolic manipulation procedures that can be used in order to improve the numerical performance of the model. It is also shown that a well-known tool in the theory of nonlinear dynamical systems, the zero dynamics algorithm, can be used in the analysis of higher index models and also in index reduction procedures. As illustrated throughout the examples the results provide a theoretical basis and systematic orientation to existing practices in dynamic process modelling.
