Modeliranje in simulacija procesov v kemijskem reaktorju s programom MS Excel

Bačar, Vid (author), Prislan, Iztok (mentor)

V vsaki industriji je nujno predvidevanje poteka procesov. Dobra računalniška simulacija je ključna, saj lahko drastično zniža proizvodne stroške. MS Excel je zelo razširjen in enostaven program, ki je v primerjavi z drugimi programi cenejši in dobro poznan uporabnikom. Z njim se da, s pomočjo programskega jezika VBA, zgraditi simulacijo reaktorja, s katero lahko preučujemo odziv reakcije na spremenjene parametre. Z reševanjem diferencialnih enačb in z numeričnimi metodami pridemo do rešitev, ki dajejo vpogled v dogajanje znotraj reaktorja.

• Title: Modeling and processes simulation in a chemical reactor with program MS Excel

Abstract

In every industry, it is necessary to predict the flow of processes. A good computer simulation is crucial, as it can drastically reduce production costs. MS Excel is a widely used and simple program that is cheaper compared to others and well known to users. In it, with the help of the VBA programming language, a reactor simulation can be built, which can be used to study the response to changing parameters. By solving differential equations and numerical methods, we arrive at a solution that provides insight into what is happening inside the reactor.
