This unit procedure simulates separation of volatile compounds in a Flash Drum. Several thermodynamic model options are available for handling the VLE calculations.
● Vapor Output: the designated output port for vapor.
● Liquid Output: the designated output port for liquid.
The following operation types are currently supported in the context of this unit procedure:
● Flash, see Flash Evaporation
● CIP, see Clean-In-Place (CIP)
Hold, see Holding
SIP, see Steam-In-Place (SIP)
Note that operations CIP, Hold, and SIP are only available in semi-continuous operating mode.
