Seamless continuity from Hysys® Steady State to INDISS™ Dynamic

As part of the complete Process and Engineering Life Cycle process INDISS™ provides the facility to import data from Hysys® Steady State simulation environment in a consistent and seamless manner.

The standard XML format is used to save the process flow sheets and read all the simulation data from Hysys® Steady State such as Reaction List and Thermodynamics. The XML file will then be used to transfer seamlessly all the data into the INDISS™ Dynamic Simulation environment. This new field proven feature of INDISS™ guarantees the integrity and consistency of the data transfer and provides a seamless continuity from Steady State to Dynamic.

The unmatched high technical content of INDISS™ will provide all the technical data and fine process transients for:

  • Engineering studies
  • DCS data base process based FAT
  • ESD check with the process dynamics
  • Operator training in a highly realistic process environment to master start up and emergency situations

Successful connection betwen INDISS™ and Sim4me

INDISS™ connects to SIM4ME for a Foxboro I/A based OTS. RSI SIMCON continues to broaden its connection to the DCS for stimulated OTS with a new field proven DLL that enables to connect INDISS™ to Foxboro I/A.

In a Foxboro I/A stimulation based OTS the high technical value resides in the dynamic process model that is hosted in INDISS™. The INDISS™ real time dynamically modelled process will then be connected through standard Corba layers to the Foxboro SIM4ME environment that supports the communication to the FSIM (hosts the simulated controls ) and the Instructor Station.

An excellent communication between INVENSYS France, SimSci Esscor and RSI SIMCON has facilitated the implementation of the communication and the success of the project.


Multi-Fluid Heat Exchanger

RSI SIMCON has developed a Multi-Fluid Heat Exchanger unit operation dedicated to model both Plate-Fin Heat Exchanger (PFHE) and Spiral Wound Heat Exchanger (SWHE). This new unit operation is successfully implemented in various recent projects:

  • Ethylene Projects: EMSB, Middle-East Company
  • Liquefaction of Narural Gas (LNG) Projetcs: Middle-East LNG (Liquefin™ technology from Axens), Yemen LNG (MR™from APCI)
