| dc.description.abstract | The object of the program was to develop general guidelines for the art of simulation, and then to show how simulation could be used in practice. A digital computer simulation was assembled to describe the operation of the Shell alkylation plant at Bronte, Ontario. The solution of the steady-state mass and energy balances provided a working simulation on which to demonstrate the modeling and simulation techniques which are presented. The simulation was used to predict the operating costs and to asses the technical feasibility of five plant case studies. | en_US |
