Matlab version 7.7 or higher must be installed and running at your system. It has been tested in COCO simulator, AVEVA Pro/II, AspenPlus, Honeywell Unisim Design and other simulators. That support version 1.1 thermodynamics or version 1.0 thermodynamics. The Matlab unit operation will function in CAPE-OPEN compliant simulation environments It must specify all the product streams using setProduct, that takes composition andįlow as well as two other properties required to specify the thermodynamic phase equilibrium.Ī very simple example script would look like:į1 = getFeedProp ( 1, 'flow' ) f2 = getFeedProp ( 2, 'flow' ) h1 = getFeedProp ( 1, 'enthalpy' ) h2 = getFeedProp ( 2, 'enthalpy' ) p1 = getFeedProp ( 1, 'pressure' ) p2 = getFeedProp ( 2, 'pressure' ) p = min ( p1, p2 ) f = f1 + f2 h =( h1 * f1 + h2 * f2 )/ f totF = sum ( f ) setProduct ( 1, totF, f / totF, 'pressure', p, 'enthalpy', h ) Requirements

It can then do calculations, using thermo-dynamicĬalculations that are based on the underlying thermodynamic system of the simulation environment the unit operation This scriptĬan obtain feed properties using the getFeedProp function. On the Matlab tab, you can enter the Matlab calculation script. Go back to the simulationĮnvironment and connect streams to the ports. To get started with the Matlab CAPE-OPEN unit operation, start your CAPE-OPEN capable simulation environment. The Matlab CAPE-OPEN Unit Operation is a unit operation implementation for which the
