Re: Flash calculations

Indeed, I was wrong.
I just misinterpreted the stream informations.
The flash unit behaves as it should.

Flash calculations

I have a flash unit operation in a testfile.
When I run it, the liquid outlet has a higher water flow than the condensed portion of the water in the inlet stream.
How can that be?

See attached file.

Re: Heat Exchanger doesn't converge

Pressing the Solve Button produces the calculation error.

When klicking Settings->Property packages-> Prausnitz->Solve Options
and setting accuracy from 1E-6 to 1E-9 it reverts back when saving the Chemsep file.

Fixed Conversion Reactor bug

This is an update of an older post here:

http://www.cape-open-forum.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=705

The pressure error is still there.
Has the Chemsep update been released already?

Re: Heat Exchanger doesn't converge

Changing those settings doesn't resolve the issue. Furthermore, at some flowsheets thoses settings can't be changed. Whenever I change iteration and accuracy settings within Chemsep and try to save the file, values are set back to the defaults. Depending on the file sometimes changing the accuracy o...

Re: Heat Exchanger doesn't converge

It also doesn't converge for heat transfer values > 0W/K.
Error message is the same as for 0 W/K.

Heat Exchanger doesn't converge

I have a co-current heat exchanger configured via LMTD.
However, when setting a value different from 0 W/K it failes to solve
(line search didn't converge).

Compounds of internal and external flowsheet don't match

I have a flowsheet set as unit operation. Thermopackages of internal and external flowsheet are identical. However, the compounds do not match on internal and external material streams, according to the window that pups up when clicking on inspect mapped compounds within the internal flowsheet. Howe...
