Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by W. H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 24 (thesis year 1979) a total of 10,033 theses titles from 26 Canadian and 215 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 24 reports these submitted in 1979, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Dynamics and Control of a Heat Integrated Distillation Column with Side Heat Exchanges

Download or read book Dynamics and Control of a Heat Integrated Distillation Column with Side Heat Exchanges written by Sadanand R. Patil and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the alternative energy-saving methods in a conventional distillation process is the use of side (intermediate) reboiler and/or condenser for a portion of the overall heat load. A nonlinear differential equations model was developed to describe the dynamics of a typical binary distillation process with and without the side heat exchangers. Conventional column dynamics can be represented by 2x2 transfer matrices, whereas for a column with side heat exchangers the open-loop and closed-loop dynamics can be expressed in terms of 4x4 transfer matrices. Analysis indicates that decoupling and feedforward control policies may be hard to implement, due to the increased dimensionality. However, simplifications obtained through the selective pairing of the control variables provide the familiar 2x2 matrix treatment. Classical control policy was extended to design different control strategies (feedback and feedback/feedforward) for a column with side heat exchangers. Simulation studies reveal that the control response is better in the case of the modified column. When the side heat exchanger duties were used as feedforward variables with reflux and main boil-up rates as feedback variables, little improvement was observed as compared to the feedback control alone. On the other hand, use of side heat exchanger duties as feedback variables with reflux and main boil-up rates as feedforward variables resulted in unstable operation of the column.

Book Process Dynamics and Control

Download or read book Process Dynamics and Control written by Dale E. Seborg and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new 4th edition of Seborg’s Process Dynamics Control provides full topical coverage for process control courses in the chemical engineering curriculum, emphasizing how process control and its related fields of process modeling and optimization are essential to the development of high-value products. A principal objective of this new edition is to describe modern techniques for control processes, with an emphasis on complex systems necessary to the development, design, and operation of modern processing plants. Control process instructors can cover the basic material while also having the flexibility to include advanced topics.

Book Distillation Design and Control Using Aspen Simulation

Download or read book Distillation Design and Control Using Aspen Simulation written by William L. Luyben and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-04-20 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely treatment of distillationcombining steady-state designand dynamic controllability As the world continues to seek new sources of energy, the distillation process remains one of the most important separation methods in the chemical, petroleum, and energy industries. And as new renewable sources of energy and chemical feedstocks become more universally utilized, the issues of distillation design and control will remain vital to a future sustainable lifestyle. Distillation Design and Control Using Aspen Simulation introduces the current status and future implications of this vital technology from the dual perspectives of steady-state design and dynamics. Where traditional design texts have focused mainly on the steady-state economic aspects of distillation design, William Luyben also addresses such issues as dynamic performance in the face of disturbances. Utilizing the commercial simulators Aspen Plus and Aspen Dynamics, the text guides future and practicing chemical engineers first in the development of optimal steady-state designs of distillation systems, and then in the development of effective control structures. Unique features of the text include: * In-depth coverage of the dynamics of column design to help develop effective control structures for distillation columns * Development of rigorous simulations of single distillation columns and sequences of columns * Coverage of design and control of petroleum fractionators Encompassing nearly four decades of research and practical developments in this dynamic field, the text represents an important reference for both students and experienced engineers faced with distillation problems.
