Line Sizing using PRO/II
1. Place a Pipe unit-op on the flowsheet and attach it with inlet and outlet stream.
2. Select the units of measure, components and thermodynamics as required.
3. Input the stream data.
4. Double click on the Pipe unit-op to open its Data Entry Window and select the Line Sizing – Forward Calculation radio button.
5. Click on Line/Fitting Data and enter the line or fitting data
Click OK.
6. Click on Line Sizing data and enter the required information
The primary sizing criterion is based on pressure so enter either a maximum pressure drop or minimum outlet pressure. User can also change the Pipe Diameters that are used in sizing search and the maximum Average Fluid Velocity.
7. Run the simulation and view results. There are many ways of viewing the results the below is a snapshot of results in html format.
About PRO/II: PRO/II is the major product in the Process Engineering Suite (PES). This process simulation software optimizes plant performance by improving process design, operational analysis, and performing engineering studies. It is designed to perform rigorous heat and material balance calculations for a wide range of chemical processes. PRO/II allows users to evaluate the use of heat integration with case studies, rigorously evaluate process improvements with the help of a process flow diagram (PFD), or model crude distillation units. PRO/II offers a wide variety of thermodynamic models to virtually every industry and is incredibly cost effective, decreasing both capital and operating costs.
Technical Support: As always, feel free to reach out to your local technical support team for more information.
