Computer Simulation of Optimal Operational Management of the Start-Up and the Operation of the Reactor Cascade

Abstract

In the article on the example of isomerization in the cascade of reactors with countercurrent cooling the computer modeling of optimal operational control of start-up and operation of the cascade of reactors is considered. The decision of optimization tasks was performed within Mathcad using the developed original optimization procedure using Mminimize and procedures Rkadapt to solve the system of differential equations and Matlab using the fmincon optimization procedures, genetic algorithm and procedure ode15s to solve the system of differential equations. Fragments of programs and results of the solution using Mathcad, Matlab are given
