Abstract

The disclosure is directed to a novel system and methods for modeling process components using segmental analysis. As opposed to analyzing the entire system at once, each element representing a process component is assigned parameter inputs that enable the system to determine a current state. Changes in the element's parameter inputs are fed in a bi-directional manner to other elements connected by segments where the other elements use the parameter inputs to determine a predictive or current process condition that are used as new parameter inputs for the next element. In some embodiments, the system allows for the prevention of component state change with only a portion of the entire process being solved, as abnormal conditions can be detected without solving for the entire system.
