Version 1.0¶
Implementation of freezing model for the freezing stage in freeze-drying of a batch of vials on a shelf in python
- Currently supported features:
Simulation of the freezing process, i.e. of thermal evolution and of ice formation, for a batch with arbitrary number of vials
Arbitrary cooling protocols (i.e., user may choose cooling rate, integrate holding steps and controlled nucleation)
Tracking of nucleation times, nucleation temperatures and solidification times for all vials
Stochastic nucleation in the form of a Monte Carlo approach as well as controlled nucleation in the form of forced initiation of nucleation at a certain point
Cubic geometry of vial and rectangular arrangement on the shelf
