Course detail
Computational Support in Energy
FSI-IMPAcad. year: 2022/2023
In the course, students will get acquainted with basic types of mathematic models used for design, analysis and optimization of process systems and equipment.
• Model of processing line describing mass and energy balance of a continuous process at a steady state
• Model of process equipment describing a transient process
• Model for the optimization of a process or equipment
• Model for detailed analysis of conditions inside of an equipment
Models included in the course are mostly based on a system of equations (mainly linear) and ordinary differential equations. Besides analytical solution of equations systems, students will learn how to apply basic numerical methods to the solution and the application of software tools.
