Computer℗¡Simulation of Thermal Plant Operations℗¡provides an in-depth℗¡discussion of℗¡thermal plant simulation: dynamic simulation of plants which produce, exchange and otherwise utilize heat as their working medium. The book adopts a fundamental approach to the subject, providing an overview of simulation concepts, descriptions of suitable computer environments, reviews℗¡of relevant computation methods and fundamental thermodynamics, detailed examinations of basic conservation equations, and in-depth developments of specific simulation models. Illustrated with photographs of equipment and numerical examples based on real plant operations,℗¡Computer Simulation of Thermal Plant Operations℗¡is an essential volume for all℗¡chemical, mechanical and control engineers involved with operations, control and optimization, and℗¡operator training.
