Abstract
A block-oriented process simulation system has been developed for solids pr ocessing applications. The specific requirements which have to be fulfilled for the description of processes with particulate solids are outlined and their implications for design and implementation of a simulator are discuss ed. The prototype simulator SolidSim is presented and its features are demo nstrated by soil-washing and gravel processing applications. (C) 2000 Elsev ier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
