Description

With the new Column Analysis feature in V9 of Aspen Plus® and Aspen HYSYS®, the underlying code related to tray and packing hydraulics has been extensively reviewed and updated. A greater range of tabulated results are now available which are in much closer agreement to experiments and to industry-standard design/rating software such as KG-TOWER® (publically available from the vendor Koch-Glitch) and Sulcol™ (publically available from the vendor Sulzer ChemTech). 

This white paper (attached with the solution) compares the results from new functionality, shared in both Aspen Plus and Aspen HYSYS, to KG-TOWER and Sulcol software, as well as with experimental data.
