A Matrix Method for Computing Process Networks Containing Multiple Nested Recycle Loops
Many process networks contain nested recycle loops representing either flow of material or of information. The computation of such a process network typically involves iterative procedures, whereby each nested loop is often converged individually. Methods have been described for arriving at a calcu...

Many process networks contain nested recycle loops representing either flow of material or of information. The computation of such a process network typically involves iterative procedures, whereby each nested loop is often converged individually. Methods have been described for arriving at a calculation sequence which minimizes the number of recycle streams and / or variables to be computed iteratively. This paper presents a matrix method which makes use of the results of such network analysis as well as information obtained in solving each individual unit operation block to arrive efficiently at a solution of the complete process network.
