Abstract

This paper discusses the working process of a batch reactor for chemical processing in industry which is simulated using a personal computer. The simulations are made manually and automatically with Visual programming techniques so that they can represent the real working conditions in the field. The simulations on the working process of this batch reactor can be grouped into two groups, namely the process simulation section and the controller simulation section. The object that will be simulated in the process section consists of the level simulation inside the reactor, the simulation of batch reaction process and the simulation of disturbance/damage. The objects that will be simulated in the controller section consist of the simulation of power ON/OFF control, the simulation of manual/automatic system control, the simulation of temperature control set point, the simulation of control of alarm panels and the simulation of control of emergency stop panels. Both groups of these sections can be simulated Visually in the form of display designs and operator panels.
