To the Issue of Mathematical Modeling of the Red Mud Thickening Process

Abstract:

The article focuses on the main mathematical modeling principles for engineering processes. The physical model of the red mud thickening process has been formed. The choice of mathematical model type has been described where the mathematical model represents the physicochemical character of the thickening process and allows estimating pulp water-yielding features at the stage of compression. Mathematical modeling of the engineering process, based on the studies of physicochemical patterns in its course and consideration of these patterns in the mathematical model, does not have certain disadvantages. Experimental data, used at the mathematical model formation where the mathematical model represents the physicochemical mechanism of the process, serve for their further analysis, physicochemical and mathematical interpretation. The mathematical model should be used as a method for detecting internal patterns in the process and for identification and quantitative assessment of its features.
