Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book provides a rigorous treatment of the fundamental concepts and techniques involved in process modeling and simulation. The book allows the reader to:

• get a solid grasp of "under-the-hood" mathematical results
• develop models of sophisticated processes
• transform models to different geometries and domains as appropriate
• utilize various model simplification techniques
• learn simple and effective computational methods for model simulation
• intensify the effectiveness of their research

Process Modeling and Simulation for Chemical Engineers: Theory and Practice begins with an introduction to the terminology of process modeling and simulation. Chapters 2 and 3 cover fundamental and constitutive relations, while Chapter 4 on model formulation builds on these relations. Chapters 5 and 6 introduce the advanced techniques of model transformation and simplification. Chapter 7 deals with model simulation, and the final chapter reviews important mathematical concepts.

Presented in a methodical, systematic way, this book is suitable as a self-study guide or as a graduate reference, and includes examples, schematics and diagrams to enrich understanding. End of chapter problems (with solutions and computer software available online www.wiley.com/go/upreti/pms_for_chemical_engineers are designed to further stimulate readers to apply the newly learned concepts.
