Optimization of chemical plant simulation using double collocation
… for the solution of a wide range of chemical plant simulation models including differential equations and optimization. Double orthogonal collocation on finite elements is applied to convert the model into an NLP problem that is solved either by the VF 13AD package based on successive …

Evolutionäre Verfahren zur Optimierung von Produktionsplänen mittels implizierter Kooperation
… using a Petri Net-based architecture for plant simulation. Every feasible production plan is the solution of a four-objective problem with conflicting objective functions. The genetic algorithms are modified to deal with multiple objectives by incorporating the concepts of Pareto …

New modelling and control methods with application to combined cycle power plants
… and modelling required to build a software simulation of combine cycle power plants. A new MIMO PID controller tuning method and a novel predictive PID controller design method for MIMO systems are also described in the thesis. The emphasis of this work is on simulation; identification and …

A Graphical Language for Batch Control
… different recipe structures, a real-time batch plant simulation platform was used. The batch recipe structures can be combined with resource allocation and a visualization of the allocation is thereby achieved. By transforming the recipes into an equivalent Petri net structure, formal analysis …

Catalogue Based Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) of Process Models
… many hardware and software problems of chemical plants become obvious during start-up and commissioning and must be corrected in a way which is resource intensive in terms of time and money. The correction procedure continues until the desired operating performance has been achieved and efficient …

Resource Efficiency in the Chemical Industry
… methodology and applies it to a detailed ammonia plant simulation at various level from the site to the equipment-level. Specific modelling choices are made, to allow for disaggregation of exergy inefficiencies according to the mechanisms they are caused by. The approach considers multiple aspects …

Economic evaluation of burning bituminous and western PRB coals for power production based on select pollution control scenarios
… Basin (PRB) coals at pulverized coal (PC) power plants while meeting the air emission limitations in these regulations. Since power plants are one of the biggest emission sources of carbon dioxide (CO2) – a main greenhouse gas – and thus a target for potential CO2 regulations, 90% CO2 capture …

Optimisation of collector locations and pipe networks for dish–Rankine power plants
… field of a concentrating solar thermal power plant is strongly dependent on the geometry of the chosen collector. Paraboloidal dish collectors are realisations of the ideal reflective imaging concentrator geometry, and offer the highest possible optical efficiency of all collector geometries. …
