Abstract
Many particulate processes in process and bioprocess engineering can be described with multi-dimensional population balances. Approximate moment methods are frequently used for their solution. In the present paper a new approach is presented, which is particular efficient when the number of internal coordinates is high. It combines the direct quadrature method of moments with monomial cubatures. With the new method the computational effort increases only polynomially, in the simplest case even only linearly with the number of internal coordinates, compared to an exponential increase for the well known Gausssian cubatures. The technique is evaluated for a five dimensional benchmark problem describing virus replication in continuous cell cultures. Furthermore, the algorithm is applied to analyze influenza virus replication in genetically modified cell lines.
