This develops the modelling and computational methods needed for the simulation of real processes. Fundamental modelling techniques are discussed in order to develop mechanistically sound mathematical descriptions of physical, chemical and biochemical processes. Practical computational methods are also developed so that efficient, accurate solutions can be readily obtained. It stresses the engineering fundamentals used in developing process models. This book considers both steady state and dynamic systems for spatially lumped and spatially distributed problems. It develops analytical and numerical computational techniques for algebraic, ordinary differential, and partial differential equations. It also stresses the use of the FORTRAN numerical routines in the IMSL library as a means of efficient and robust computer solution.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
In the chemical industry large, realistic non-linear problems are routinely solved with the aid of computer simulation. This has a number of benefits, including easy assessment of the economic desirability of a project, convenient investigation of the effects of changes to system variables, and finally the introduction of mathematical rigour into the design process and inherent assumptions that may not have been there before. 'Computational Methods for Process Simulation' develops the methods needed for the simulation of real processes to be found in the process industries. It also stresses the engineering fundamentals used in developing process models. Steady state and dynamic systems are considered, for both spatially lumped and spatially distributed problems. It develops analytical and numerical computational techniques for algebraic, ordinary and partial differential equations, and makes use of computer software routines that are widely available. Dedicated software examples are available via the Internet.
