1. Determine objectives, end-use, required details and accuracy
2. Draw schematic diagram and label all variables, parameters3. Develop basis and list all assumptions; simplicity Vs reality 4. If spatial variables are important (partial or ordinary DEs)5. Write conservation equations, introduce auxiliary equations 6. Never forget dimensional analysis while developing
equations 7. Perform degree of freedom analysis to ensure solution 8. Simplify model by re-arranging equations 9. Classify variables (disturbances, controlled and manipulated
variables, etc.)
Systematic Approach for Modelling (Seborg et al 2004)
6
• To understand the transient behavior, how inputs influence outputs, effects of recycles, bottlenecks
• To train the operating personnel (what will happen if…, ‘emergency situations’, no/smaller than required reflux in distillation column, pump is not providing feed, etc.)
• Selection of control pairs (controlled v. / manipulated v.) and control configurations (process-based models)
• To troubleshoot • Optimizing process conditions (most profitable
scenarios)
Need of a Mathematical Model
7
• Theoretical Models based on principal of conservation- mass, energy, momentum and auxiliary relationships, ρ, enthalpy, cp, phase equilibria, Arrhenius equation, etc)• Empirical model based on large quantity of experimental data) • Semi-empirical model (combination of theoretical
and empirical models) Any available combination of theoretical principles and empirical correlations
Classification of Process Models based on how they are developed
8
Theoretical Models Physical insight into the process Applicable over a wide range of conditions Time consuming (actual models consist of large
number of equations) Availability of model parameters e.g. reaction rate
coefficient, over-all heart transfer coefficient, etc. Empirical model Easier to develop but needs experimental data Applicable to narrow range of conditions
Advantages of Different Models
9
State variables describe natural state of a process Fundamental quantities (mass, energy, momentum)
are readily measurable in a process are described by measurable variables (T, P, x, F, V)
State equations are derived from conservation principle (relates state variables with other variables)
(Rate of accumulation) = (rate of input) – (rate of output) + (rate of generation) - (rate of consumption)

Nf = Nv - NE
Case (1): Nf = 0 i.e. Nv = NE (exactly specified system)
We can solve the model without difficulty
Case (2): f > 0 i.e. Nv > NE (under specified system), infinite number of solutions because Nf process variables can be fixed arbitrarily. either specify variables (by measuring disturbances) or add controller equation/s
Case (3): Nf < 0 i.e. Nv < NE (over specified system) set of equations has no solution
remove Nf equation/s
We must achieve Nf = 0 in order to simulate (solve) the model

Modeling Distillation ColumnEquilibrium relationships (to determine y)
Mass balance (total and component) around 6 segments of a distillation column: reflux drum, top tray, Nth tray, feed tray, 1st tray and column base.
Solution of ODE for total mass balance gives liquid holdups (mN) Solution of ODE for component mass balance gives liquid
compositions (xN) V1 = V2 = … = VN = VB (vapor holdups) How to calculate y (vapor composition) and L (liquid flow rate) Recall αij is constant throughout the column Use αij = ki/kj , xi + xj =1, yi + yj = 1, and k = y/x to prove
Phase-equilibrium relationship (recall thermodynamics)
21
Liquid flow rate can be calculated using well-known Francis weir hydraulic relationship; simple form of this equation is linearized version:
LN is flow rate of liquid coming from Nth stage LN0 is reference value of flow rate LN
mN is liquid holdup at Nth stage mN0 is reference value of liquid holdup mN β is hydraulic time constant (typically 3 to 6 seconds)

Modeling Distillation ColumnDegree of Freedom Analysis

(does not work for liquid flow rates D and B) Total mass balances (1 for each tray, reflux drum and
column base) → N+2 (22)
Total component mass balances (1 for each tray, reflux drum and column base) → N+2 (22)
Total Number of equations NE = 4N + 5 (85)

simplifying assumptions!
