Numerical modeling of hardly-splittable loose mixtures separation process
The paper deals with the mathematical model of the non-stationary technological process of loose mixtures separation, its numerical algorithm and the computational experiments aimed at synthesizing main parameters and their variation ranges for different operating conditions of the separating unit. Since the mathematical model is described by system of nonlinear differential equations in order to solve the problem there was developed the numerical algorithm based on the predictor-corrector method. The algorithm provides the quadratic convergence of the iterative process. The software tool was developed as well for carrying out computer experiments on computers. The results of experiments for different values of the input parameters of considered process are given in figures. Based on a detailed analysis of the obtained results, there were drawn conclusions related to the responses of the main parameters of the process.
