Abstract
A FLOWTRAN® modelled ammonia synthesis loop has been optimized by Quadratic Approximation Programming (QAP),—a method based on successive quadratic approximation to the plant objective and constraint functions. The algorithm is easily adapted to FLOWTRAN and functions efficiently. In two examples, the total computing time for optimization is only about 65 times that for a single simulation. this is a significant improvement over earlier studies.
