Öğe An Improved Analytical Solution of Population Balance Equation Involving Aggregation and Breakage via Fibonacci and Lucas Approximation Method(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2019) Pınar, Zehra; Dutta, Abhishek; Kassemi, Mohammed; Öziş, TurgutThis study presents a novel analytical solution for the Population Balance Equation (PBE) involving particulate aggregation and breakage by making use of the appropriate solution(s) of the associated complementary equation of a nonlinear PBE via Fibonacci and Lucas Approximation Method (FLAM). In a previously related study, travelling wave solutions of the complementary equation of the PBE using Auxiliary Equation Method (AEM) with sixth order nonlinearity was taken to be analogous to the description of the dynamic behavior of the particulate processes. However, in this study, the class of auxiliary equations is extended to Fibonacci and Lucas type equations with given transformations to solve the PBE. As a proof-of-concept for the novel approach, the general case when the number of particles varies with respect to time is chosen. Three cases i.e. balanced aggregation and breakage and when either aggregation or breakage can dominate are selected and solved for their corresponding analytical solution and compared with the available analytical approaches. The solution obtained using FLAM is found to be closer to the exact solution and requiring lesser parameters compared to the AEM and thereby being a more robust and reliable framework.Öğe Analytical solution of population balance equation involving aggregation and breakage in terms of auxiliary equation method(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2015) Pınar, Zehra; Dutta, Abhishek; Beny, Guido; Öziş, TurgutThis paper presents an effective analytical simulation to solve population balance equation (PBE), involving particulate aggregation and breakage, by making use of appropriate solution(s) of associated complementary equation via auxiliary equation method (AEM). Travelling wave solutions of the complementary equation of a nonlinear PBE with appropriately chosen parameters is taken to be analogous to the description of the dynamic behaviour of the particulate processes. For an initial proof-of-concept, a general case when the number of particles varies with respect to time is chosen. Three cases, i.e. (1) balanced aggregation and breakage, (2) when aggregation can dominate and (3) breakage can dominate, are selected and solved for their corresponding analytical solutions. The results are then compared with the available analytical solution, based on Laplace transform obtained from literature. In this communication, it is shown that the solution approach proposed via AEM is flexible and therefore more efficient than the analytical approach used in the literature. © Indian Academy of Sciences.Öğe Analytical solution of population balance equation involving growth, nucleation and aggregation in terms of auxiliary equation method(Natural Sciences Publishing Co., 2015) Pınar, Zehra; Dutta, Abhishek; Beny, Guido; Öziş, TurgutThe Auxiliary Equation Method (AEM) has been modified to obtain the solutions of a Population Balance Equation (PBE) involving particulate growth, nucleation and aggregation phenomena. In all the cases examined, the volume density distributions are accurately predicted by the travelling wave solutions of the complementary equation of the nonlinear partial integro-differential equation with distinctly chosen parameters. Being a flexible technique and a direct comparison for the existing analytical solutions, this study proves the potential of the proposed methodology. © 2015 NSP Natural Sciences Publishing Cor.Öğe Analytical Solution of Population Balance Equation Involving Growth, Nucleation and Aggregation in Terms of Auxiliary Equation Method(Natural Sciences Publishing, 2015) Pınar, Zehra; Dutta, Abhishek; Beny, Guido; Ozis, TurgutThe Auxiliary Equation Method (AEM) has been modified to obtain the solutions of a Population Balance Equation (PBE) involving particulate growth, nucleation and aggregation phenomena.

The main reason is because the homotopy method deforms continuously a difficult problem under study into a simple problem, which then can be easy to solve. This study explores several homotopy approaches to obtain semi- or approximate analytical solutions for various cases involving mechanistic phenomena such as aggregation and breakage. The well-established approximate analytical methods namely, the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM), the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM), and the more recent forms of homotopy approaches such as the Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM) and the Homotopy Analysis Transform Method (HATM) have been used to solve using a general mathematical framework based on population balances. In this study, several test cases have been discussed such as conditions in which the aggregation kernel is not only constant, but also sum or product dependent. Furthermore cases involving pure breakage, pure aggregation and a combined aggregation-breakage have been studied to understand the sensitivity of these homotopy-based methods in solving PBM. In all these cases, the solutions have been analytically studied and compared with literature. Using symbolic computation and carefully chosen perturbation parameters, the approximate analytical solutions are compared with each other and with the available analytical solution. A convergence analysis of the solution methods is made in comparison to the available solution. The case studies indicate that OHAM performs slightly better than both HATM and HPM in solving nonlinear equations such as the PBEs.Öğe Tuning algorithms for fractional order internal model controllers for time delay processes(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Muresan, Cristina I.; Dutta, Abhishek; Dulf, Eva H.; Pınar, Zehra; Maxim, Anca; Ionescu, Clara M.This paper presents two tuning algorithms for fractional-order internal model control (IMC) controllers for time delay processes. The two tuning algorithms are based on two specific closed-loop control configurations: the IMC control structure and the Smith predictor structure. In the latter, the equivalency between IMC and Smith predictor control structures is used to tune a fractional-order IMC controller as the primary controller of the Smith predictor structure. Fractional-order IMC controllers are designed in both cases in order to enhance the closed-loop performance and robustness of classical integer order IMC controllers. The tuning procedures are exemplified for both single-input-single-output as well as multivariable processes, described by first-order and second-order transfer functions with time delays. Different numerical examples are provided, including a general multivariable time delay process. Integer order IMC controllers are designed in each case, as well as fractional-order IMC controllers. The simulation results show that the proposed fractional-order IMC controller ensures an increased robustness to modelling uncertainties. Experimental results are also provided, for the design of a multivariable fractional-order IMC controller in a Smith predictor structure for a quadruple-tank system.
