Inherit from COUSCOUS models

Post by HenkF »

Hi Jasper,

I wonder if it is possible to inherit from existing COUSCOUS models. I would like to add a pressure drop routine (using Delphi) to a Heat Exchanger model.
Would that be a feasible route to explore?

A Happy Easter to all of you!

Kind regards,
Henk

Best Easter wishes to you.

To do I suppose you would have to create a unit operation, that creates a COUSCOUS unit operation. Then for the port collection, expose all COUSCOUS ports, etc. Then at Validate, validate the COUSCOUS unit and add your own validation. At Calculate, calculate the COUSCOUS Unit and add your own processing.

But why not simply an embedded flowsheet containing a heat exchanger and two custom pressure drop unit operations?
