ASW encapsulation of simulation diagrams in HYSYS
Thread Content
In Aspen PLUS, it is possible to directly copy the simulation diagram and then paste it into Excel. In HYSYS, when pasting, it will only appear in the table: “(Note: Copied HYSYS objects are currently stored in an intermediate file.)”. What’s going on here, and how can it be fixed? Note: Since he said it’s stored in an intermediate file, I tried the following: 1. Right-clicked on the desktop directly, but the text turned gray when trying to paste it ； 2. Paste it in the drawing tool, and the result is a image showing something like “(Note: Copied HYSYS objects are currently stored in an intermediate file.)”.

HYSYS is written in C++, and its interface differs slightly from that of PLUS. If you want to copy a flow diagram, you can right-click and select the appropriate option; among these options, there is a percentage for zooming, which you can choose according to your needs.

Reply to 5# kaka*8891: I originally thought the owner wanted to add data displays on the overall flowchart, but it turns out they want tables drawn next to each device. :)
It’s not clear when exporting images using HYSYS; it’s better to copy them directly using Aspen. I don’t know where this intermediate file is?
I’ve encountered the same problem. Have you solved it? Mine is version V8.0
