Simulation training and chemical process simulation
Thread Content
Dear seniors, I am a novice here, and I have a question for you: what is the specific difference between simulation training and chemical process simulation? Can they be used together? There are many discussions about chemical process simulation on this forum; could any of you recommend resources on simulation training? Thank you all!
Simulation training and process simulation are two distinct technical concepts: simulation training focuses on the simulation of phenomena, whereas process simulation emphasizes the accuracy of the results! It is recommended that the original poster look up more information to strengthen their theoretical knowledge
The analysis upstairs is correct. To put it simply, simulation involves using a computer to create graphical models of real or hypothetical devices, so that they can be operated in the same way as real devices； Process simulation, on the other hand, uses software as a tool to mimic a process; based on the conditions provided by the user, it carries out calculations regarding material balance, energy balance, phase balance, and chemical balance for that process, thereby predicting the phenomena that may occur during it.
The advice from all of you seniors is excellent; thank you
What was said on the second floor is correct; there are simulation software such as FlexSim, ExtendSim, EM-Plant, Witness, and so on. I think most of these are used in the logistics field, that is, they focus on process timing and the optimization of sequence. Simulation software: Aspen, Pro II. I’ve just started learning these as well and am not very familiar with them; it seems they focus on chemical reactions.
Chemical process simulation should be used for training equipment operation; simulation is essentially computation.
