The new workflow has both the ability to automatically establish “default” mappings as well as the capability to over-ride these mappings and substitute the user’s own mappings. For example, a distillation column in Aspen HYSYS might be mapped into several items such as a trayed tower, a kettle-type reboiler, an overhead condenser, a reflux pump, and a horizontal drum ( Figure 2).

The module develops estimates based on a “standard basis file” which includes company-standardized, project-standardized, and the geographic cost basis (US Gulf Coast, Europe, Middle East, UK, and Japan) information.Ī key step in economic evaluation with the new integrated evaluation feature is the mapping of each simulator model (unit operation) to one or more process equipment. By activating the economic module, the Aspen HYSYS simulation results automatically transfer to APEA. The costing engine is Aspen Process Economic Analyzer (APEA).
The Mapping and Sizing steps can be individually performed or can be skipped in favor of an “Auto Evaluation” based on default-assigned mappings and sizing algorithms.įigure 1: Economic Evaluation Tab in Aspen HYSYS Simulation Environment
