Process Model Types

Process Model Types Distributed Model Involvement of any or all of these: x,y,z,t (Dimensions) Result: Partial Differential Equations Based on Dimensions

Lumped Model Either time or any of x,y,z Dimension Based only on single dimension. Result: Ordinary Differential Equations

Steady State Model Based on Time

Unsteady State Model

Considering the Probability and Randomness in the system

Deterministic Model (No probability factor)

Stochastic Model (Involvement of probability) E.g. Treatment of Turbulence
