Boiler simulation issues in Aspen Plus
Thread Content
When simulating boilers in Aspen Plus, which modules should be used for the drum and slag discharge, and how should the heat content of the ash and slag be specified? Urgently need a solution; thank you very much!
Reply to 1# 12531 Hello! Has your problem been solved? I am currently performing Aspen Plus simulations for methanol synthesis, and I’ve encountered the same issue. I’m simulating a drum using Flash2, but it doesn’t work.
Reply to 2# tjdxchenqian: Try using a heat exchanger for the drum
Reply to 3# 12531: That’s correct. A heater is used for the steam drum, SSplit and FALT are used for slag discharge, and ESP is used for electrostatic dust removal; the latter two are modules for solid matter treatment
Reply to 4# xwfswn Thank you
Flash2 seems to work fine for the steam drum as well
