Process Simulation Using Parametrized Models

The application of virtual factory simulation plays a pivotal role in the design and optimization of modern production systems. By enabling the evaluation and refinement of manufacturing processes prior to physical implementation, process simulation significantly enhances decision-making efficiency. Real-time optimization has attracted considerable attention in the process industry and is widely adopted, as it typically relies on external databases and parameter sets. This study investigates the import, use, and management of such external parameters, providing a comprehensive overview. A detailed case study is developed and solved to demonstrate the proposed approach. The results show that process simulation with parameterized models improves system efficiency and enables real-time optimization capabilities.
