Hi, I got a question- I'm relatively new to aspen plus. I'm trying to simulate ammonium chloride - water absorption (endothermic) reaction. Which property method would be ideal for this case? I've trying to do the simulation in RGibbs reactor

[@SuperKiffi]

I have a question...from where you are giving the input condition like temperature 70 degree and pressure 1 bar. and from where you are giving the cstr volume 0.14...please respond if you can...i am working on one workshop related to this..so need some response..thanks

[@romarioluz]

Do you have all the ehtyl acetate process design?

[@RatuAdellya]

can you please explain t o me where'd you get the k and the E value for somewhere around 3:00

[@azkmn7]

Yeah im confused as well, where do we get this from

[@ChemicalEngineeringLibrary]

@@azkmn7 use linear regression...... a kind of experimental data u cant find it without data

[@azkmn7]

@@ChemicalEngineeringLibrary yeah i get it more like hit and trial

[@SANDRES-03]

Did you find the values of K and the E ..if so please help

[@breehaskins3493]

what are the units on the pre-exponential constant k

i want to simulate the kraft pulping process of producing paper. How do i do that ? can you make a video on that please

[@tigerwuli2760]

could you explain the trick of connecting the material from the duplicate block to the 4 reactors? I do it as chaos.

[@tigerwuli2760]

Solved, thanks.

Hello mate, I am new user of aspen plus and I am trying to simulate Organic rankine cycle. My problem is that I can not edit input on streams. The software does not allow me to click "Edit Input" section on the streams. Can you help me with this please?

Ahmet Bey sorunu çözebildiniz mi? Aynı sorunla bende karşılaşıyorum.

Could explain pyrolysis reaction ?

[@rizqianayogicahyaningtyas5680]

So do I. I need it

Hi, I closed the MAIN FLOWSHEET tab by mistake, how can I find it? Thanks

[@xyramaldoku]

On the View tab, just below "View", you'll see an icon saying "Flowsheet", just click on it

[@claudiamo2524]

found it, thanks!!

*Much easier to do this in the freely available Kintecus software system.*

[@rodolfovela9747]

Doing it at that speed the reactors explode...
