Process Modeling Simulation & Control

Q: What versions of Aspen Plus and Aspen HYSYS can incorporate Aspen EDR designs? A: The integration has been possible for many years; however, V7.3 and higher shows that the integration is much easier to use. Notably, in V8.0 the full Aspen EDR console was accessible from the simulators for multiple types of heat exchangers. .

Q: What is the difference between MUSE and EDR Plate Fin? Is one better to use in certain applications? A: Plate-fin was released in 2009 and was designed to replace MUSE. It has a more advanced integration structure to handle different geometries of plate-fin exchangers more readily than MUSE could. We also greatly improved the integration with Aspen HYSYS. .

Q: Is it possible for Aspen EDR to calculate a plate-fin heat exchanger operating as a reflux condenser? A: We do not currently have this capability in our plate-fin program. It is available in a Shell & Tube heat exchanger. .

Q: Can Aspen EDR be used with Aspen HYSYS Dynamics? A: Currently, Aspen EDR can only be used in steady-state simulation. .
