Distributed Parameter Modelling Applications

摘要: Many processing operations and product descriptions lead to the use of distributed system modelling due importance spatial variations in states. This chapter shows some industrial applications where concepts are vital for gaining insights into design these systems. It outlines development model, giving details assumed balance volumes main convective diffusive flows system. The conceptualisation is discussed, resultant model defined. study considers a retorting device oil shale. used test out performance such devices. second example drawn from fertilizer industry involves commercial granulator producing industrial-grade phosphate fertilizers.
