Simulation case study

This chapter presents a regulatory overview of on-site remediation, remedial investigations (RI), feasibility studies (FS), remedial technologies, and a simulated case study. The discussion of remedial investigations and feasibility studies also includes the development and selection of remedial technologies. The case study outlines a remedial investigation and feasibility study, as well as the selection of remedial technologies. 

In this section, the proposed approach has been tested in a simulation case study, developed in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. In detail, the problem of temperature control of the phenol-formaldehyde reactive system, developed in Sect. 2.4, has been considered. 

Subsequently, we considered the control implications of our findings, and showed that control objectives related to the energy dynamics of the individual units (e.g., temperature control) should typically be addressed in the fast time scale. On the other hand, control objectives related to the energy dynamic at the process level (such as managing energy use) should be addressed in the slow time scale. These concepts were illustrated through several examples and a simulation case study.

The proposed strategies for stabilization of gas-lifted oil wells are offline methods which are unable to track online dynamic changes of the system. However, system parameters such as flow rate of injected gas and also noise characteristic are not constant with respect to time. An adaptive Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) approach is presented in this paper in which the state estimation is performed using an Adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter (AUKF) to deal with unknown time-varying noise statistics. State-feedback gain is adaptively calculated based on Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR). Finally, the proposed control scheme is evaluated on a simulation case study. 

The primary objective of the SS component is to enhance the understanding of the course beyond the classroom teaching. The self-study is categorized as course project, term paper/seminar, field work, modelling and simulation, case studies, proof of concept/prototype development. In 2011, the department designed curriculum structure and self-study activity is offered for three courses per semester. Depending on the course content, the SS activity and associated rubrics to evaluate student... 

The high fidelity model developed in the previous section can be used to conduct simulation case studies, what-if analysis, decision support, dynamic optimization, and soft-sensing with model predictive control. The off-line dynamic optimization approach is introduced here to illustrate a strategy that can be followed to develop optimum operation trajectories to achieve a specific PSD shape. 

Realistic computer simulation case studies, based on physical properties that exhibited nonlinear, high-order dynamic behavior in a rapid simulation environment... 

This chapter has provided a brief overview of process integration issues and possible solutions. For a much broader discussion of the topic of heat integration, the reader should consult Douglas (1988) or Seider et al. (2008). For a more extensive development of control system design issues, including a number of simulation case studies, Luyben (2002) should be consulted.
