Aspen Custom Modeling udemy course
Develop an Edge with Custom Modeling Expertise
Create complex custom models that you can seamlessly integrate with pre-built flowsheets. This course will provide a guided tour of all the steps required for you to create your own models by showing an example model.
A simple gravity drain tank example shall be used for understanding how to create a custom model. The example will start simple and become complex step-by-step allowing you to understand the methodology and nuances of creating custom models. Initially, Torricelli's equation is implemented and calculated to show how the software handles equations. Next, physical properties are included into the model. Then, Aspen properties database is linked to provides properties at any temperature and pressure. Later, the model is made pressure dependent and pressure-related equations are implemented. The stage-wise addition of complexity to the model provides a clear picture of the functioning of the model and also eases the troubleshooting of bugs and errors within the model. Stage-wise validation and testing also becomes possible.
Once the model features have been added to the required accuracy, and verified/validated, the model is exported to aspen dynamics for use with other pre-built models. Now valves pumps and other units operation may also be used in conjunction with our custom model.
I have tried to create a course that is practically useful. If i have fallen short, I am always an email away from you and always eager to help you understand.
