Refrigerated Gas Plant Din. Deyab Fares Refrigerated Gas Plant Experience the New Aspen HYSYS’. V The best process simulation software is now easier to use and faster to learn than ever! Aspen HYSYS is a comprehensive process modeling system used by the world’s leading oil & gas producers, refineries, and engineering companies to optimize process design and operations. Mobile: (+2) 01227549943 : Email: adeyab@adeyab.com Tt Refrigerated Gas Plant A Alimed Deyab Fares Workshop In this simulation, a simplified version of a reftigerated gas plant is going to be modeled, The purpose is to find the LTS (Low Temperature Separator) temperature at which the hydrocarbon dewpoint target is met. The Sales Gas hydrocarbon dewpoint should not exceed -15°C at 6000 kPa, The incoming gas is cooled in two stages—first by exchange with product Sales Gas in a gas-gas exchanger (Gas-Gas) and then in a propane chiller (Chiller), represented here by a Cooler operation. A Balance operation will be used to evaluate the hydrocarbon dewpoint of the product stream at 6000 kPa. Learning Objectives © Adda hypothetical component © Install and converge heat exchangers. © Understand logical operations (Balances and Adjusts) © Use the Case Study tool to perform case studies on your simulation. | Mobile: (+2) 01227549943 - Email: adeyab@adeyab.com t Refrigerated Gas Plant A Alimed Deyab Fares Example: The feed stream enters an inlet separator, which removes the trey CH liquids. Overhead gas from the Separator is fed to the Chiller ogre ly ~ is cooled to -20°C, which will be modeled simply as a Cooler (Fesbure Drop=35 kPa). The cold stream is then separated in a lo efraure separator (LTS). Overhead gas from the LTS ty the beaten N (Pressure drop=skPa) where it is heated to 10 rete eet sale Specifications.
