In ASPEN distillation column simulations, convergence is achieved for the kettle-type reboiler column and heat curves can be generated, but why isn’t convergence possible when a thermosyphon reboiler is selected? How to use the heat curve data of a Kettle-type reboiler to import it into HTRI for calculating a thermosyphon reboiler?
In ASPEN distillation column simulations, when a kettle-type reboiler is used, heat curve data can be exported. If convergence cannot be achieved when selecting a thermal siphon reboiler, it may be due to improper parameter settings or insufficient convergence conditions. You can try adjusting parameters, increasing the computation time, or using other methods for optimization. To import heat curve data into htri for calculating thermal siphon reboilers, follow these steps: 1. Export the heat curve data as a CSV file (or another format). 2. Open the htri software, create a new project, and add a thermosyphon reboiler module to the project. 3. On the input interface of the module, locate the option for importing thermal curve data and select the file saved earlier. 4. Set other parameters of the module according to specific conditions (such as pressure, temperature, flow rate, etc.), and perform calculations. 5. Finally, based on the calculation results, optimize the parameters of the module to achieve better results. In summary, importing the heat curve data from ASPEN distillation column simulations into htri to calculate thermosiphon reboilers requires a series of operations and adjustments, as well as analysis and experimentation based on specific conditions. .
