A concentration-preserving discontinuous Galerkin method for multi-component preparative chromatography
摘要
Multi-component liquid chromatography mass balance equations are typically formulated as time-dependent, nonlinear, convection-dominated partial differential equations (PDEs). In this study, we develop, analyze, and numerically validate a concentration-preserving discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method for solving equilibrium-dispersive preparative chromatography with a model-free adsorption isotherm. The proposed semi-discrete DG scheme is proven to conserve the concentrations of all species and to achieve optimal
