Chapter 2 Today’s Ethical Discussion !
Lecture Outline:
What are mathematical models anyway (in their simplest forms)
and why they are needed simple examples ?
Types of mathematical models
Rationale for dynamic models
Classification of models with pros and cons

accuracy and complexity on one hand, and the cost and effort
required to develop the model, on the other hand.
• Process modeling is both an art and a science. Creativity is
required to make simplifying assumptions that result in an
appropriate model.
• Dynamic models of chemical processes consist of ordinary
differential equations (ODE) and/or partial differential equations
(PDE), plus related algebraic equations.

Substitution of the mass balance in (2-12) for dV/dt in (2-15)
gives:

After canceling common terms and rearranging (2-12) and (2-16),
a more convenient model form is obtained:

Example 2.1: Stirred Tank Blending Process
A stirred-tank blending
process with constant
liquid holdup of 2m3 is
used to blend two
Chapter 2
Assumptions:
Note that this term appears in the general energy balance of Eq. 2-
10.
Suppose that the liquid in the tank is at a temperature T and has an
enthalpy, Ĥ . Integrating Eq. 2-29 from a reference temperature
Tref to T gives,
Hˆ Hˆ ref C T Tref (2-32)
where Hˆ ref is the value of Ĥ at Tref. Without loss of generality, we
assume that Hˆ ref 0 (see Appendix B). Thus, (2-32) can be
written as:
Hˆ C T Tref (2-33)
