Excuse me, seniors, I want to learn* Computing software, which one is more suitable for novices to learn, proII or aspen? * ? This post was last edited by rearly on 2008-8-12 13:21 ]

Both are good, depending on the industry you are in. If it is oil refining, PROII may be better. If it is the chemical industry, ASPEN may be better. The software used is relatively unimportant. The key is to have a deep understanding of the process to be simulated and to have a systematic study of thermodynamics, especially phase equilibrium. * and understanding.

It also depends on what kind of software the company has traditionally used. Be able to master one!

I think pro/II is easier to learn, and the interface is better to use! Some simulation friends I know also feel this way, and the pro/II simulation results are basically the same as aspen, except that aspen has a greater advantage in electrolytes! So I agree with the opinion of my friend above!

For newcomers, you might as well try HYSYS or VMGSim. These two softwares use object-oriented programming methods, which are easier and more convenient to use. When your input meets the calculation degree of freedom, the software will automatically start calculation immediately without pressing Run. It is as convenient and concise as using Excel.

This is a good question, and I was just about to ask about it. I hope experts can compare the two with examples.

I recommend Pro/II. There are not as many unit modules as Aspen, and it is easy to accept. When I first learned Aspen, I was confused by seeing so many boxes. Once you learn Pro/II, you will understand what should be filled in and what should not be filled in when looking at Aspen.

I thought it would be better to learn ASPEN first, as it is more versatile, and then learn PRO2 after having used it for a while. After all, the software is all the same, and the important thing is the background knowledge of chemical engineering.

pro/II is easier to learn

PRO/II is recommended. It is easier to get started and the logistics and module settings are more intuitive. The disadvantage is that the report does not look as good as Aspen.

I personally think PROII is better and I can get started relatively quickly.

I also think pro ii is easier to learn, but aspen is more powerful

I think Aspen is easy to learn.

Of course it is pro II, the graphics are well done and easy to use.

I want to learn something. The posters have talked about it a lot, but I still don’t know which one to learn. They all seem to be similar, so just pick one.

I learned ASPEN before, but later found PRO2 to be more intuitive and easier to use. Of course, it depends on the industry you are involved in.~~

Thank you to all the posters. I am going to learn proii first. If I don’t understand, I will ask you for advice.

If only to learn* It is recommended to use ASPEN. The software is the same. Once you know one, the other will get started quickly.

I use Aspen, and it was difficult at first. Once you get started, it will be fine. Then it will be much faster to learn chemcad, vmg and the like. Personally, I still agree with what you said above. The software is similar. Let me draw inferences.

I think PROII is easier to use. There are many empirical formulas in PROII that can be used, and the interface is relatively easy for novices to accept. Use aspen after you learn it. Aspen's functions are more powerful.
