Modeling of a Multiple Effect Desalination System

Article Preview

Abstract:

A multiple variable model is developed for a multiple-effect low temperature desalination system. Multiple-effect water desalination has been used in industry for decades due to its high efficiency and high quality of fresh water production. Here, its dynamical process is modeled based on the mass and heat conservation laws and then expressed in terms of a state space equation, enabling people to carry out analysis and design controllers.
