Abstract:An existing batch precipitation reactor in the mining industry was modelled from first principles using MATLAB S-function language and wrapped into Simulink custom blocks. The model was validated with open loop simulations to evaluate the response to step changes in the model inputs. Two PID controllers with different parameters were implemented on the model at different operating points and their temperature control performance was evaluated based on their ability track a temperature of the industrial reactor… Show more
