Modeling of crude distillation unit (CDU)

Crude distillation unit (CDU) is a complex process in the field of separation which produces wide range of products at different stages under different conditions.The products of the process were heavy naphtha,kerosene,diesel,atmospheric gas oil and reduced crude.However,the dynamic and multivariabl...
