Abstract

Three different strategies of how to combine computational chemical product design with Monte Carlo based methods for uncertainty analysis of chemical properties are outlined. One method consists of a computer-aided molecular design (CAMD) solution and a post-processing property uncertainty propagation through the considered process. It is demonstrated for an industrial case study on identification of a suitable working fluid in a thermodynamic cycle for waste heat recovery. The results show that including property uncertainties gives an additional criterion for the fluid ranking in working fluid design. While the higher end of the uncertainty range of the process model output is similar for the best performing fluids, the lower end of the uncertainty range differs largely.
