Dynamical systems steady states

Assuming constant coefficients, both the dynamic and steady-state equations describing this system can be solved analytically, but the case of varying coefficients requires solution by digital simulation. 

However, because the relief system is discharging a two-phase mixture, it is acting to empty the reactor. Account can be taken of this by performing a dynamic (non-steady-state) calculation, and many of the methods described later in this Workbook do this. By taking advantage of emptying, a smaller relief system size can... 

It appears that the best description of modem seawater composition is that of a chemical system in a dynamic quasi-steady-state. Changes in composition may occur over time, but the system always seems to return to a time-averaged, steady-state composition. In other words, since 1.5-2 billion years ago, evolutionary chemical changes in the hydrosphere have been small when viewed against the magnitude of previous change. 

Models are either dynamic or steady-state. Steady-state models are most often used to study continuous processes, particularly at the design stage. Dynamic models, which capture time-dependent behavior, are used for batch process design and for control system design. Another classification of models is in terms of lumped parameter or distributed parameter systems. A lumped parameter system...

Most real processes contain recycle streams. In this case the plantwide control problem becomes much more complex and its solution is not intuitively obvious. The presence of recycle streams profoundly alters the plant s dynamic and steady-state behavior. To gain an understanding of these effects, we look at some very simple recycle systems. The insight we obtain from these idealized, simplistic systems can be extended to the complex flowsheets of typical chemical processes. First we must lay the groundwork and have some feel for the complexities and phenomena that recycle streams produce in a plant. 

We could go on for many pages about the many interesting dynamic and steady-state effects observed in this complex nonlinear process. The primary message, however, is that a base-level regulatory control system has been designed that provides effective stable control of this complex process.

The above discussion may involve both control and dynamics of steady state (single and multiple), unsteady state (transition between two states) and unstable operations of the bioreactor resulting from typical non-linear response of biological systems. In spite of the fact that the stability analysis of non-linear systems is quite advanced, experimental confirmation of multiple steady states and instabilities lags behind (for a review of theory and experiments see (45)). An excellentexample of experimental demonstration of unstable operation of a continuous reactor is in (46). 

Another area of considerable conceptual difficulty relates to the observation that the adult animal exists in a more-or-less steady-state, well removed from equilibrium. When observed day-to-day there is generally little variation in body composition while the animal is on a consistent diet, the mass of protein, carbohydrate, and fat remaining approximately constant. This constancy is maintained despite the rapid turnover of the body s constituents. The living system is not static but dynamic, the steady-state being maintained because synthetic reactions exactly balance degradative processes. How this balance is achieved and what governs the overall rate of metabolic flux and heat production are the main topics of this section.

In Social Dynamics and Finance and even in the case of living systems, steady states can easily be perturbed by random variables or by appearance of new variables. Whereas in physico-chemical systems, the correlation coefficients can be experimentally determined or estimated theoretically this is not possible in the case of other systems. Only some guess can be made from satisfied data.

Borstar is an industrial olefin polymerization plant/technology, which combines different polymerization processes and reactor units, utilizing an advanced catalytic system. In the present work, a detailed model for the dynamic and steady-state simulation of this industrial plant has been developed. A comprehensive kinetic model for the ethylene-1-butene copolymerization over a two-site catalyst was employed to predict the MWD and CCD in the Borstar process. The Sanchez-Lacombe equation of state (S-L EoS) was employed for the thermodynamic properties of the polymerization system and the phase equilibrium calculations in the process units. 

The study of the dynamic control of any process requires a dynamic model that is eapable of capturing the important d5mamic features of the process. The macroscopie effects of changing manipulated variables on the variables to be controlled must be capture with sufifieient fidelity to give realistic dynamic and steady-state responses. The model used for eontrol does not need to be as detailed as one used for gaining fundamental understanding of the microscopic details of mass and energy transfer and phase equilibria in these complex, multi-phase systems. 

The rate and extent of these processes can change over time. A mass balance usually reflects one of two assumptions or their converse the system is at equilibrium or the system is at steady state. Equilibrium is a state of dynamic balance—such as that which occurs when forward and reverse reactions are equal— where there is no impetus for change within the system. Steady state simply means that the condition being evaluated (which might be concentration in a certain phase or the flow rate, for example) is essentially unchanging over a specified time period. 

The rheological responses measured at low values of strain better reflect the effects of the blend structure. For multiphase systems, there are serious disagreements between the predictions of continuum-based theories and experiments, that is, between the small and large deformation behavior. For example, the identity of zero-deformation rate dynamic and steady state viscosity is seldom found, and so is the Trouton rule. Similarly, the derived by Cogswell, relationship between the extensional viscosity and the capillary entrance pressure drop, and derived by Tanner equation for calculating the first normal stress difference from the extrudate swell, are rarely valid. 

In a boiler, or distillation column, or evaporator, transfer of heat is an integral part of the operation, and system pressure can be used to close the heat balance. In this role, the pressure controller has much the same type of dynamic and steady-state relationships as a temperature controller normally does. Therefore the properties of this sort of pressure-control loop will be covered for the most part under considerations of temperature control. 

In this section, we present a general approach for approximating higher-order transfer function models with lower-order models that have similar dynamic and steady-state characteristics. The low-order models are more convenient for control system design and analysis, as discussed in Chapter 12. 

The function of a feedback control system is to ensure that the closed-loop system has desirable dynamic and steady-state response characteristics. Ideally, we would like the closed-loop system to satisfy the following performance criteria ... 

Previous chapters have considered the development of process models and the design of controllers from an unsteady-state point of view. Such an approach focuses on obtaining reasonable closed-loop responses for set-point changes and disturbances. Up to this point, we have only peripherally mentioned how set points should be specified for the process. The on-line calculation of optimal set points, also called real-time optimization (RTO), allows the profits from the process to be maximized (or costs to be minimized) while satisfying operating constraints. The appropriate optimization techniques are implemented in the computer control system. Steady-state models are normally used, rather than dynamic models, because the process is intended to be operated at steady state except when the set point is changed. 

In summary, it is impossible to comprehend the action of enzymes and to experiment with biochemical systems and their energetics without a firm foundation in chemical equilibria. In many experimental situations the enzyme governs the arrival at equilibrium, but not its position. In contrast, the organism, like its own individual cells, must be considered as an open system which normally maintains a dynamic equilibrium. In a dynamic equilibrium, steady state concentrations will ahvays be established different from those of the chemical equilibrium, which is governed by thermodynamics. Hence, reactions tending toward equilibrium take place continuously, and it is these reactions which provide the energy necessary for the organism s vital processes. 

Models can be divided into static and dynamic. This is known as an object at any moment and how this information changes dynamically with events [11]. This representation can provide a different perspective of the same system. Steady-state model shows the structure of the system to be developed. Steady state is just one initial condition for a dynamic model always get steady-state model for free in dynamic study.

Most chemically reacting systems tliat we encounter are not tliennodynamically controlled since reactions are often carried out under non-equilibrium conditions where flows of matter or energy prevent tire system from relaxing to equilibrium. Almost all biochemical reactions in living systems are of tliis type as are industrial processes carried out in open chemical reactors. In addition, tire transient dynamics of closed systems may occur on long time scales and resemble tire sustained behaviour of systems in non-equilibrium conditions. A reacting system may behave in unusual ways tliere may be more tlian one stable steady state, tire system may oscillate, sometimes witli a complicated pattern of oscillations, or even show chaotic variations of chemical concentrations.
