Chapter 14Solving Material and Energy Balances using Process Simulators (Flowsheeting Codes)

14.1 Main Concepts

Looking Ahead

In this chapter we survey process simulators (flowsheeting codes) that are used in industrial practice to solve material and energy balances.

14.1 Main Concepts

As explained in Chapter 6, a plant flowsheet such as the simple diagram in Figure 14.1 mirrors the stream network and equipment arrangement in a process. Once the process flowsheet is specified, or during its ...
