Description

Welcome to Introduction to Process Simulation with Aspen HYSYS!

In this hands-on course, you will learn the essentials of Aspen HYSYS, a leading process simulation software used across various industries including chemical, oil, and gas. This course is tailored for beginners who want to gain a solid foundation in process simulation and develop practical skills that can be applied immediately.

Starting with the basics, you'll learn how to set up Aspen HYSYS and become familiar with its intuitive interface. You'll dive into creating new simulation cases, defining components, and selecting thermodynamic models (fluid packages). With clear, step-by-step guidance, you’ll progress to building basic simulations involving unit operations such as pumps, heaters, and coolers.

You'll also explore how to connect material streams, run simulations, and analyze the results to ensure accuracy. To reinforce learning, the course includes a simple but practical project where you build Ammonia Synthesis Process Simulation.

By the end of this course, you will have the skills to create your own basic simulations. Whether you're a student or an industry professional, this course will provide you with the knowledge and confidence to start working with Aspen HYSYS and move toward more advanced simulations in the future.
