Course content

4 sections • 14 lectures • 2h 25m total length

  • Simulation Case Overview8:08

    Develop a simulation case to separate gas, condensate, and water using three-phase separators, staged cooling (heat exchanger, cooler, expander), and distillation (demethanizer, deethanizer) in Aspen HYSYS.

  • Material stream and 3 Phase Separator13:06

    Simulate a turboexpander plant for LPG from natural gas using an LNG exchanger and a three-phase separator. Define a feed with Peng-Robinson fluid and components including nitrogen and octane.

  • LNG Exchanger and Cooler5:07

    Connect LNG exchanger streams, apply ten-interval simple weighted parameters with optional phase change, and set two specs to equalize cold streams and enforce a 10 C minimum approach.

  • Expander, Valve, Set operation10:16

    Demonstrates using a mixed ethane-propane refrigeration subflow sheet, an expander, and a valve to lower and match pressures, with three-phase and two-phase separators to split wastewater, condensate, and vapor.

Description

Distillation Columns/Separators simulation by Aspen HYSYS course provides a comprehensive overview of using the Aspen HYSYS process simulation software to model and analyze distillation columns, from beginner to advanced levels. The course will guide participants through the step-by-step process of constructing a distillation column model, starting with the basics and progressing to more complex simulations.

Key topics covered include:

Distillation Column Simulation in Aspen HYSYS: Participants will familiarize themselves with the Aspen HYSYS interface and learn how to build a distillation column model, including specifying the column internals, feed stream, and operating conditions.

Advanced Distillation Modeling: This section will explore the simulation of the condenser and reboiler sections of the distillation column, as well as the analysis of stage efficiency and column internals sizing and rating.

Real Separator and Carryover Effects: Students will learn how to model real separators, including the simulation of carryover effects and the implementation of carryover correlations. They will also explore the use of secondary separation devices to enhance the performance of the distillation column.

Throughout the course, participants will have the opportunity to apply their knowledge through hands-on exercises and case studies, reinforcing their understanding of distillation column simulation and its practical applications in the process industry.
