Abstract

In this paper, we propose a graph-theoretic algorithm that can be used to analyze complex chemical processes comprising of multiple energy integration loops. Such networks are known to exhibit dynamics in multiple time scales. The algorithm uses information on the order of magnitude of the different energy flows and determines automatically the time scales where the units evolve, the manipulated inputs acting in the different time scales and the form of the reduced order models in each time scale. The application of the algorithm is illustrated through a case study of a benchmark chemical process.
