TRANSCRIPT
Consistent and Reliable Results
The process industries are characterized by a wide range of highly complex processes. It is important to have access to the latest
and most exhaustive set of physical properties to ensure accuracy and consistency in simulation results.
A robust yet flexible physical properties system is the foundation of process modeling. Inaccurate property calculations cause
errors in simulation results, which lead to errors in equipment sizing, poor designs, and subsequent operational problems,
besides impacting capital and operating costs.
Aspen Properties addresses these challenges by providing an extensive set of out-of-the-box parameters, significantly expanding
the reach of process modeling to processes that previously were difficult to model.
Aspen Properties®
The industry standard for thermophysical properties
Aspen Properties provides state-of-the-art physical property methods, models, algorithms, and datafor chemists and engineers. Quickly check the properties of pure components or mixtures on yourdesktop or through the built-in web interface. Users can also include Aspen Properties’ calculationswithin Microsoft Excel® spreadsheets, facilitating the deployment of consistent physical property dataand knowledge across the enterprise.
Key Benefits• Enables all chemists, engineers, and
technologists in the enterprise to accessthe industry standard for thermophysicalproperty calculations
• Ensures consistent, reliable resultsthroughout the product and process lifecyclethrough the use of the same rigorous,proven thermophysical property models anddata across all engineering applications
The Aspen Properties Excel add-in provides powerful access tophysical properties and equilibrium calculations, which enablescreation of custom applications (e.g., flammability analysis) quickly.
