Pass-Through (in a GBX): Modeling Calculations

Equipment Sizing

If the equipment size option is in Design Mode and the operating throughput exceeds the maximum throughput, then, the program assumes multiple, identical units operating in parallel with an operating throughput of less than the maximum. If the equipment size option is in Rating Mode and the operating throughput exceeds the rated throughput of the step (which is equal to the rated throughput of each unit times the number of units), a warning message is displayed advising the user to increase the number of units or reduce the operating throughput.

Equipment Purchase Cost

No default purchase cost model exists. To specify a value, right-click on the icon of the unit and select Equipment Cost. The dialog that is displayed allows you to specify a fixed cost or a function is a power-law format.

Operating Cost

To specify auxiliary utilities and labor parameters, right-click on the icon of the unit and select Operating Cost Adjustments.

Duration

If the duration of this operation is matched up to another operation (master operation), then the setup time, process time and turnaround time are simply derived from the master operation. For more on master-slave relationships, see The Scheduling Tab.
