Nonlinear Multiphysics Modeling of Batch Digester Discharge Dynamics with Rheology-Driven Hydraulic Transport and Drainability Coupling
Abstract
Batch digester blowdown operations exhibit highly nonlinear hydraulic transport dynamics due to evolving slurry consistency and rheological uncertainty. This work presents a nonlinear dynamic model and a robust Sliding Mode Control (SMC) strategy for discharge-flow regulation in industrial batch digester systems. The proposed framework incorporates non-Newtonian slurry rheology, consistency-dependent hydraulic resistance, drainability effects, channeling phenomena, and nonlinear hydraulic transport behavior.
