β¦ Synopsis
Karhunen-Loeve expansion and feedtbrward neural networks are combined together in modeling a wall cooled fixed-bed reactor lbr its on-line perlbrmance prediction. The K-L expansion is employed as a preprocessor of neural networks while the latter is used to generate the coefficients of the K-L expansion. The perlormance oflhe KL-NN model is investigated b3' both experimentation and simulation with benzene oxidation as a working system. It is shown that the method is effective tbr on-line prediction of the bed temperatures. Our conclusions are more important than just that one term can be used. Sometimes it might be two or three, but the method desctribed in the paper is still powerful.

In the first part of this study, a method for classifying non-linear systems using neural networks was proposed and validated using data from numerical simulation. In order to extend this validation to experimental data, a system was required with a repeatable non-linearity of controllable severity,
