Stochastic Properties of the Solution Vector of Parameters for the Model of the Partially Mobile Adsorption of a Single Gas on an Energetically Heterogeneous Microporous Adsorbent
Abstract
For the previously formulated model of single gas adsorption on energetically heterogeneous microporous solids, two adsorption isotherms were generated — one for each distribution function of the localization energy dividing two neighbouring adsorption sites. Using numeric methods, a mass measurement error was ascribed to each point generated for both adsorption isotherms and an analysis of the influence of the normal distribution of this error on the type of distribution of the optimized parameter values was undertaken. The hypothesis regarding the agreement of the distributions of the parameter values for both energy distribution functions was verified. The work described was carried out for three arbitrary assumed values of the variation coefficients of the adsorbate mass measurement error.
