Distillation Tray Effeciency, Adding Trays, Side Operations and Column Tray Sizing

[@abdulansari2007]

very very nice, simple and straight to point..!

[@orthoh2224]

Really great until the end. Know I think many people are waiting for the kinetic reactors :D

[@pranaysinha2837]

Thank you for great teaching. i liked it so much

[@adrianl6811]

Most welcome. One day i will get some more done. :) But very happy it helps some folks out.

[@moneebalbanna]

If you're using a new version and can't find tray sizing then double click on the column and its the internals tab Hope that helps :)

[@satriawirapratama9660]

Thanks adrian, but i got lost in column environment and dont know how to back to main flowsheet/simulation. any suggestion ?

[@billydharmawangoputra2827]

click, go to parent on flowsheet tab

[@Erbilforever]

Hello, Is there any good free simulation program like Hysys ? because im studying chemical engineering and can't afford this.

[@adrianl6811]

Erbil forever haven't tried any but you might check this link en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_process_simulators

[@Erbilforever]

Adrian L Thanks mate , appreciate that

Hi Daniel, it is supposed to be under the Equipment design, not sure if you are using a newer version and it has been moved, my advice is to search the help in your current version. If you still cant find it send me a not with your version number abd i can try to assist.

How to find out reboiler and condenser, steam and water flow rate?

[@madeshwaranj4031]

Sir if you can then please updated more tutorial videos on aspen hysys, it will be more useful.

[@TheEggie90]

Hei Adrian, Im using Aspen HYSYS V9 but i cant find the "tray sizing" under Equipment design. Any reason for this that i could have missed ? Thanks

[@Nicholascarballo]

I'm using V10 and can't find it either.

[@moneebalbanna]

Double click on the column and its the internals tab :)

[@abdulansari2007]

Could you Pls explain me what do you mean by 2.902e+007 KJ/H. Actually it is kilojoules per hour duty but what is 2.902e+007?

[@adrianl6811]

Abdul Ansari it means 29020000 or 2.902 × 10^ 7. It's a hysys convention for engineering notation.

[@abdulansari2007]

Thanks...! got it now.

[@luqmanhakeem9960]

Sir i am not getting option in my Hysys for Tray Sizing under the equipment design. What should i do for that?

[@adrianl6811]

luqman hakeem it may be the version you are using. Search Help for the term tray sizing.

[@luqmanhakeem9960]

Thanks

Hi...How can we simulate single-effect evaporation ??

[@adrianl6811]

اسعد السعيدي sry for the late response, was grading scripts. your best bet is to build a spreadsheet block and export the variables to the streams

[@aveirozinou2919]

Could you Pls tell me how to added a cooler between tower and condenser i appreciat it coz this gonna help me on my work thank you

[@adrianl6811]

Aveiro Zinou this must be done in the column environment. you access it through the columns form with the button on the bottom. then it's just like regular hysys from there.

[@aveirozinou2919]

wht do u mean by "" it's just like regular hysys from there."" coz im new using this softawre ... i wish u help me (u know my problem taht i want to have a cold distillat after the top tower stage >>> for eg : the temp of vap out of top stage is "-10 " i want it to be "-27" before going condenser .. can u help me plz thank you !

[@adrianl6811]

Aveiro Zinou this may or may not be possible at the pressure the column is operating at. You can go to the specs page and try shifting your spec to condenser temperature instead of one of the specs you have currently. This will allow you to set the temperature to what you desire but you may find that there is no feasible solution unless you adjust the column operating pressure.

[@aveirozinou2919]

@Adrian .. im simulating a real process and they put an exchangre (in my case i want just colling the gas) so i want to know if puting a tempurature for the condenser is just the same like puting a cooler or its diffrent ...ty for ur reply again

[@adrianl6811]

Aveiro Zinou if they added an additional cooler you can add it in the column environment as per my first reply. However if you just want to simulate the additional cooling duty then adjusting the condenser temperature will have the same effect.

I'm sorry i haven't worked with v11.
