Component problem
Thread Content
In Aspen simulations, when entering components, if there are interacting substances, should only the reactants be entered, or should components such as intermediate products or final products also be included? I’m a newbie; please give me some guidance.
Only the final product should be entered; please experts help to verify this
Reply to 2# chinaliru: Usually, we only know the input components and their physical properties; to enter the product components, don’t we need to simulate the reaction first? Is it too complicated for multiphase systems with multiple reaction equilibria? Can’t the system automatically determine what reactions and equilibria exist?
Reply to 3# htcfkq :) For common ion reactions, if you choose the Elec Wizard, the system will generate the reaction automatically; you can view it under reaction\chemistry. These reactions can be used throughout the entire computing process. But if you want to use reactions that the system has not generated, you can define them yourself; for balanced reactions, you can also define them on your own. I’m not an expert either; let’s discuss it together
It shouldn’t make a determination automatically; you can enter the dynamic equations! It seems that electrolyte processes can be determined automatically, but I think those equilibrium equations need to be modified! !
Reply to 1# htcfkq: It is suggested that the original poster should enter all the components involved, as when writing a chemical reaction equation, it is necessary to select the components in order to complete the equation
