Can HYSY set the initial pressure and temperature of the storage tank?
Thread Content
In HYSYS, it seems that the parameters of the storage tank are determined by the incoming stream. Is there any way to set the initial temperature and pressure of the storage tank? Thank you in advance for any answers from experts!
In HYSYS, the initial pressure and temperature of a tank are indeed usually determined by the inlet stream, but you can indirectly set the initial conditions of the tank by adjusting the parameters of the inlet stream. If it is necessary to set the parameters of the tank directly, you can try using devices such as the “Pressure Changer” or “Heater” in HYSYS to pre-treat the stream entering the tank, thereby achieving the desired initial pressure and temperature for the tank. At the same time, check whether the correct tank model and calculation method have been selected, as this also affects the final results. .
Hello, the fluid entering my storage tank is kept at a constant pressure of 90 MPa by the pump ahead of it. In this case, can’t I use the pressure regulator you mentioned to adjust the pressure of the fluid entering the tank? What I want to achieve is an initial pressure of 0.1 MPa and a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius in the tank; then the fluid at 90 MPa enters the tank until the pressure inside the tank reaches 90 MPa
