Poster for Foundations of Computer Aided Process Design (FOCAPD) 2024 describing the formality of model-based design of experiments for batch crystallization. This paper focuses on the implementation of model-based design of experiments for parameter precision, enabled by Pyomo.DoE, a package in Python. Specifically, this work outlines an identifiability analysis for the estimability of the model parameters in a batch crystallization system.
Adaptive and self-optimizing intelligent systems such as digital twins are increasingly important in science and engineering. Digital twins utilize mathematical models to provide added precision to decision-making. However, physics-informed models are challenging to build, calibrate, and validate with existing data science methods. Model-based design of experiments (MBDoE) is a popular framework for optimizing data collection to maximize parameter precision in mathematical models and digital twins. In this work, we apply MBDoE, facilitated by the open-source package Pyomo.DoE, to train and validate mathematical models for batch crystallization. We quantitatively examined the estimability of the model parameters for experiments with different cooling rates. This analysis provides a quantitative explanation for the heuristic of using multiple experiments at different cooling rates.
