Introduction to Process Modeling using Aspen HYSYS - FlexClass

 

Course Overview:

Optimize process operating conditions, reduce capital costs with accurate thermophysical data for equipment sizing and drive process sustainability by managing utility costs and emissions to maximize value from plant assets. This training class will focus on rapidly creating process models using intuitive workflows and highlight key features of Aspen HYSYS which can help you design and analyze processes and report key performance indicators by performing sophisticated calculations to meet sustainability goals.

 

This course will help you prepare for the certification exam and the exam fee is waived with this course.

The design and operation of a process facility typically necessitates that various engineering analyses be performed. Engineers must be able to predict process operating conditions, as well as execute optimization studies to meet their project goals. Aspen HYSYS has the capability to model complex process facilities, and assist engineers in finding the operating conditions that will maximize the value of plant assets (without exceeding plant design limits, e.g. available utilities). This technology can reduce capital costs by providing accurate thermophysical data for equipment sizing, and by enabling the user to perform sophisticated calculations that would be impractical with less-capable technologies

Pre-Class Tutorial:
To prepare for this course we strongly recommend that you complete the eLearning module ‘Aspen HYSYS: Learn the Basics’ (ATEL-323-EN) prior to the class.

Starting with aspenONE V12, our self-paced eLearning content can be accessed directly from within Aspen HYSYS. For detailed instructions on how to do this, check out the article: How to access eLearning directly from the application.
