102-0227-00 G | Systems Analysis and Mathematical Modeling in Urban Water Management | 4 Std. |
| E. Morgenroth, M. Maurer |
Katalogdaten
Kurzbeschreibung | Systematic introduction of material balances, transport processes, kinetics, stoichiometry and conservation. Ideal reactors, residence time distribution, heterogeneous systems, dynamic response of reactors. Parameter identification, local sensitivity, error propagation, Monte Carlo simulation. Introduction to real time control (PID controllers). Extensive coding of examples in Berkeley Madonna. |
Lernziel | The goal of this course is to provide the students with an understanding and the tools to develop their own mathematical models, to plan experiments, to evaluate error propagation and to test simple process control strategies in the field of process engineering in urban water management. |
Inhalt | The course will provide a broad introduction into the fundamentals of modeling water treatment systems. The topics are: - Introduction into modeling and simulation - The material balance equations, transport processes, transformation processes (kinetics, stoichiometry, conservation) - Ideal reactors - Hydraulic residence time distribution and modeling of real reactors - Dynamic behavior of reactor systems - Systems analytical tools: Sensitivity, parameter identification, error propagation, Monte Carlo simulation - Introduction to process control (PID controller, fuzzy control) |
Skript | Copies of overheads will be made available. |
Literatur | There will be a required textbook that students need to purchase: Willi Gujer (2008): Systems Analysis for Water Technology. Springer-Verlag, Berlin Heidelberg |
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | This course will be offered together with the course Process Engineering Ia. It is advantageous to follow both courses simultaneously. |

Zusatzinformation zum Prüfungsmodus | During the semester there will be three exams, including two midterm exams and a final end-of-semester exam. The second and third exam are written on the computer (for the schedule see: Link). The final course grade is calculated as a weighted average of these three exams, with a weighting of 25% for each midterm exam and 50% for the final exam. To obtain the credits a grade of 4.0 must be reached in this weighted average. If you miss an exam you will need a certified medical excuse or prior instructor approval, otherwise a grade of 1.0 will be given for that exam. In the case of a missed exam with excuse/approval, a makeup exam will be scheduled that will be fair but comprehensive and challenging. If you write the first exam you are not allowed to withdraw from the course anymore and it will count as your first attempt. If your average grade is below a 4.0 you must retake this course (or at least the three exams) the next time this course is offered. |
