INTRODUCTION

In process and chemical industry, it’s obligatory to do

the modeling and simulation of systems, which is
based on developing mathematical models describing
the problem from a mathematical methods and
concepts.
In this problem we are presenting a combined mass
ans energy balance in a water storage tank.

CONCLUSION

Simulation is the technical discipline which shows the behavior and reactions of any

system on its model.

Most chemical processes have non-linear propreties. Simulation is one way to

examine the behavior of these systems, the behavior is obtained by unsteady state

and dynamic analysis of the model which is usually presented by a set of ordinary

differential equations.
