Regarding the virtual components of Aspen Oil
Thread Content
For example, virtual components cut by software like PC22C – based on what are they cut from? Is it possible to view the physical properties related to PC22C, such as boiling point?
D86, could you provide a detailed explanation???
HYSYS and VMGSim can be used to view it; Aspen seems not to be able to
:Q So do you know what determines the classification of these virtual components?
The software specifies a range, and the oils are typically divided according to boiling points of 10–15 degrees
To be more specific, what is the minimum value for XX in PCXXC? Which carbon atom does this minimum value correspond to?
The 22C value later on can be found specifically in the results of petro characterization
There’s nothing in result,,,
Well, I get it. For Petro Characterization version 8.0, a new setup is required; version 7.2 doesn’t need one
Regarding your request, Aspen and HYSYS don’t seem to be able to tell you the corresponding number of carbon atoms, while VMGSim can provide the virtual molecular formula, which indicates the corresponding number of carbon atoms
