Zusammenfassung:This disclosure relates to processes for producing polyolefins in a gas phase reactor using condensing agent(s) (CAs), and real-time calculation of the ratio of one type of CA to another CA within a CA composition. This disclosure provides methods for controlling condensed phase cooling in a gas phase reactor used to polymerize olefins. The polymerization may employ one or more polymerization catalysts to polymerize one or more olefin monomers, and may include introducing a first condensing agent and a second condensing agent in a ratio of first condensing agent to second condensing agent, which ratio is calculated by ascertaining a stick limit for a first condensing agent, calculating an equivalence factor relating the first condensing agent and a second condensing agent, ascertaining a total allowable condensing agent, and calculating a first amount of the first condensing agent removed and replaced by a second amount of the second condensing agent.
