Aspen HYSYS is a core element of AspenTech’s aspenONE™ Process Engineering applications.

Aspen HYSYS Upstream Option provides industry standard methods and techniques for handling petroleum fluids and brings together the disciplines of petroleum and process engineering. Production field data can be input in an easy to use environment to create an asset wide model from the reservoir to the back end of the facility.

Aspen HYSYS Petroleum Refining layers powerful new features onto the Aspen HYSYS® process simulator to simplify and improve petroleum refining simulations. Based on the well-accepted Aspen HYSYS interface, Aspen HYSYS Petroleum Refining streams are driven with crude assays that support an extensive set of stream petroleum properties. Complex, multi-unit simulations can be quickly configured incorporating key units like the naphtha reformer or FCC and associated fractionation.

Aspen HYSYS Crude enables the simulation of crude oil assays and crude columns. It characterizes the hydrocarbon fluid by determining the hypothetical components that make up the oil and predicts their thermo-physical and transport properties.

Aspen Flare System Analyzer enables engineers to perform steady-state design, rating, or debottlenecking of single or multiple flare and vent systems. The program can calculate minimum sizes for new flare systems or evaluate alternatives to remove bottlenecks in existing relief networks. Aspen Flare System Analyzer can also be used to identify potentially dangerous relief scenarios during design phase or current operational scenarios. Aspen Flare System Analyzer is a core element of AspenTech’s aspenONE™ Process Engineering applications.

Aspen Plus is a market-leading process modelling tool for design, optimization, performance monitoring and business planning for chemical/petrochemicals, specialty chemical, polymer, minerals/metals, and coal power industries.

Aspen Plus Dynamics extends Aspen Plus steady-state models into dynamic process models, enabling design and verification of process control schemes, safety studies, relief valve sizing, failure analysis, and development of startup, shutdown, rate-change, and grade transition policies.

The competitiveness of today’s markets and the focus on energy efficiency requires improved heat-integrated process designs. Aspen Energy Analyzer—working in concert with flowsheet simulators like Aspen Plus® and Aspen HYSYS®—provides an easy environment to perform optimal heat exchanger network design and pinch analysis.

Aspen Custom Modeler is a process/equipment model development and simulation environment. Engineers use Aspen Custom Modeler (ACM) to quickly create rigorous models of processing equipment and to apply these equipment models to simulate and optimize continuous, batch, and semi-batch processes. It is used across many industries including: metals and minerals, chemicals, power, nuclear, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods.

Aspen Operator Training Simulator (OTS) offers a single integrated platform for process training and operator training simulators. It is a technology used by a network for building and deploying process training and OTS applications.

Aspen HYSYS Upstream Option provides industry standard methods and techniques for handling petroleum fluids and brings together the disciplines of petroleum and process engineering. Production field data can be input in an easy to use environment to create an asset wide model from the reservoir to the back end of the facility.

Aspen Model Runner enables model authoring engineers to deploy their models to a wider range of users at reduced costs while simultaneously protecting intellectual property contained within the model.

Aspen Online Deployment enables the use of models in plant operations for a wide range of real-time process monitoring, soft sensor, and operator advisory applications. Models are executed on a periodic schedule using conditioned on-line plant measurements. Model predictions are published to the historian to populate operator displays, or tracked for trend analysis.

Aspen Simulation Workbook provides easy and robust integration between AspenTech’s process simulators and Microsoft Excel, allowing users to deploy models to a wider range of users without writing a single line of code.

Aspen Shell & Tube Mechanical is used for complete mechanical design or rating of shell & tube heat exchangers and basic pressure vessels. It used for optimizing thicknesses of the majority of exchanger components, including flanges, tubesheets, expansion joints, supports, cylinder thicknesses, and nozzle reinforcement. In rating mode, it determines if the component thickness for an existing exchanger are adequate for a given set of design temperatures and pressures
