OverviewDifferences to Aspen
• Aspen– Next Button
– Many units that perform a given function
• Degrees of Freedom are chosen for you
– Setup for kinetic reactions are tricky
– Accounts for particle sizes• Simple block models
– Automatic Plant Costing (Icarus)
• ProMax– More Thermo Package Choices– Fewer units that perform a given
function• You choose the Degrees of
Freedom– Reaction setup is more straight
forward– Detailed design of
• HX– Reboilers– Condensers
• Distillation Columns– Does not deal with particle sizes– No Plant Costing– Some minor bugs not worked out

Degrees of Freedom• Phase Diagram
– F = C-P+2• C=Components• P=Phases• 2 = T and P
• Process Simulation• ND= Nvariables-Nequations
• Nvariables for each stream– Mole fractions– Mole flow rate– Enthalpy (T,P)
• Nequations– Overall Component mole
balance– Mole fractions add to 1.0
for each stream– Enthalpy Balance

Example-I
• Problem 5.12• Alternatives in preparing a feed. A
process under design requires that 100 lbmol/hr of toluene at 70F and 20 psia be brought to 450 F and 75 psia.
• Flow sheets using Peng-Robinson– Boil-Superheat-Compress– Pump to 75 psi-Boil-Superheat
