Problem Statement
This is an example demonstrating the modeling of simple blending mixer in Aspen Custom Modeler
Solution
Fe, C, Cr and Mn are fed to furnace and mixed together to create Stainless Steel.
It does not use Aspen Properties but it uses stringset to define those components.
Detailed code are attached as below.
You can learn how to use For Loop and multiport in this example.
Model Well
comp as stringset(["C","Fe","Mn","Cr"]);
inlet as input multiport of Fport;
outlet as output Fport;
total_mass as mass;
mass(comp) as mass(initial,0.1);
total_mass=sigma(mass);
fraction(comp) as massfraction;
1e4*fraction(comp)*total_mass=1e4*mass(comp);
Opening as percent(fixed,0.001);
for i in comp do
$mass(i)=sigma(inlet.connection.mass*inlet.connection.fraction(i))-outlet.mass*outlet.fraction(i);
endfor
outlet.fraction=fraction;
outlet.mass=Opening/100*total_mass;
End
