Resumen

The continuous hot pressing of medium density fiberboard (MDF) is a common and efficient way to produce this popular wood-based panels used for furniture and construction. The goal of this work is to develop a first-principles model of the process based on previously available work, and to use it to formulate predictions by implementing its numerical resolution on the program EcosimPro by the methodology of finite volumes. Results of the model are studied and compared with previous results available for a similar model of the same process from previous studies. The final purpose of the simulation is to be implemented as an online simulation as part of an integrated optimization and control scheme for a real MDF plant.
