Aspen Plus V11 : Chemical Reactors Course by udemy download steady-State Chemical Engineering Simulation and Modeling of Chemical Reactors using Aspen Plus V11. Aspen Plus is a powerful engineering simulation software that you can use to model a wide range of chemical processes. It is widely used in engineering universities and in the industry, in research, development, modeling and design.
Aspen Plus serves as the engineering platform for modeling processes from Upstream through Gas Processing to Petroleum Refining, Petrochemicals, Chemicals and Pharmaceutical processes. This online course is designed around a series of chemical reactor examples which we work through to a model solution. It is an essential guide to understanding the principles, features and functions of Aspen Plus when modeling simple (POWERLAW) and complex (LHHW) chemical reactions.
This understanding is a prerequisite for a successful design, simulation, rating & optimization of your chemical reactors.
