Complex industrial processes such as the drying of combustible biomass can be described with partial differential equations and finite volume methods. It is not straightforward to use these models to monitor or analyze process parameters due to the complexity of these methods. We show that reduced order models are capable to overcome this drawback and can be used in model based observers to determine quantities that cannot be measured directly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
