Modellbildung und Rechnersimulation als Werkzeug der sicheren Reaktionsführung

Model formation and computer simulation as tools for safe reaction engineering . The possibilities and problems of the simulation of the transient operating behaviour of reactors are discussed for the example of a catalytic fixed bed reactor. A survey of the development of mathematical models for the study of reactor stability and dynamics and a terse discussion of problems of digital calculation of model equations are followed by three examples of the application of available methods in practice: an example of section‐wise temperature profile control and two examples of the study of the dynamics and control of cooled tube bank reactors for partial oxidation reactions.
