Session 2 : Binary Analysis in Aspen Plus+

The part we liked the most!

Throughout the video you are going to be amazed how simply the binary mixture analysis is exploited to propose a distillation unit for the mixture. Then the presenter switches to do the same for a three-component mixture by using Azeotrope Search and Analysis of Ternary Systems. Next, he tries to show how to validate different property methods for a mixture against real data. Finally, he shows what PT Envelope Analysis is and how it could be used.

Part 2 : Equipment Simulation and Design

Session 3 : Pressure Change in Aspen Plus+

Get to know how pressure change equipment in your plant are simulated. In this part you learn how to simulate pumps, control valves and pipes. More importantly, you will learn how sensitivity is used to predict cavitation in pumps and a lot more.

Session 4: Separation and Mixing in Aspen Plus+

Watch the video to see how different types of separators are simulated and how wrong selection of property method could lead to major differences between simulation and reality.

Session 5: Heat Exchanger Design and Simulation in Aspen Plus+

Learn how different types of icon in Aspen Plus for heat exchanger simulation could be used and what information could be extracted output of aspen results.

Session 6: Distillation Column Design and Simulation in Aspen Plus+

This part is going to transform your knowledge about distillation columns. The speaker at first shows how DSTW model could be used and how its result could be used to model the distillation column in a rigorous form. Then in second part he talks about new mixture, does the same but this time he also talks about conversion problems and how it could be addressed. Furthermore, he shows how the tower could be sized. Finally, he dedicates his time to delve into the difference between rate-based model and equilibrium model.

Part 3 : 

Session 7 : Utilities in Aspen Plus+

One of the most important things that is ignored most times! In the video the presenter shows you the different types of utilities used, how they could be calculated for different applications such as distillation columns.

Session 8: Solid Process Modeling in Aspen Plus+

Watch if your work deals with solid processes. In the video you are taught how crushers, fluidized beds, drying and crystallization processes are simulated. Throughout the examples you get to know PSD, stream classes and classifications comprehensively.

Session 9: Electrolytes System Simulation in Aspen Plus+

Learn how apparent or true component approach can impact your simulation results.

You will learn when a system is categorized as electrolyte system and how Electrolyte Wizard could be used to accelerate your simulation of electrolyte system. Throughout the video you are provided with two comprehensive examples to help you obtain a deep understanding of electrolyte system and how to behave towards it pragmatically.

Session 10: Pharmaceutical Application Simulation in Aspen Plus

See how powerful Aspen Plus is!

Throughout the video you see how new component with little experimental information could be created and be used in simulation environment. More importantly you will observe how powerful and extensive Aspen plus library is when the presenter compares the simulation based on his own registered component and the simulation based on Aspen Library.

Part 4

Session 11 : Aspen Energy Analyzer

Optimize heat exchanger network design for new plants.

By watching the video, you can see how professional process engineers shortlist possible heat exchanger network using Aspen Energy Analyzer in an optimized manner.

Session 12: Aspen Capital Cost Estimator

Watch the video to learn how Aspen Capital Cost Estimator could be used to wrap up your projects.

The instructor at first shows how this software could be used to estimate the cost of a unit of a process plant and get full report from the software. Then he shows how Aspen plus economic feature could be used to estimate the cost by giving two examples.
