Aim of the event:
Optimization of equipment, plant and process design in process engineering is often supported by the use of computer based simulation tools. Two widely spread software tools are demonstrated, giving a brief overview of the field of process modeling and simulation. During this course, students gain the ability to analyze and describe several exemplary issues of process engineering utilizing the specified software tools. Students learn to apply software tools to identify weaknesses in a chemical process and to suggest and evaluate possible improvements. Extensive computer based exercises serve to ensure a deep comprehension of the presented content.
Target group:
- Mechanical, plastics and fluid process engineers
- Industrial engineers
- Chemical engineers
- Technical chemists
Contents:
1.) Basic theory of contemporary modeling methodology
2.) AspenTech Aspen Plus (fluid process engineering)
Introduction to the software tool Aspen Plus, selection and application of property methods, modeling and simulation of representative tasks in process engineering: column design, heat transfer, reaction engineering
3.) AspenTech Aspen Plus (particle technology)
Description of distributed variables, exemplary simulation of complex solids processes, feedback of specific equipment parameters on the entire process
4.) CiT PREDICI®
Introduction into PREDICI®, selection and creation of kinetic models for polymer reactions, understanding and modeling of polymer characteristics (molecular weight, composition and distribution), exemplary process optimization for polymer reactions, parameter estimation

Comment:
The lecture units of Prof. Kenig and Prof. Schmid are held weekly during the semester.
The lecture unit of Prof. Hungenberg is held in two blocks on the semesters last two fridays from 8:00 - 11:00 a.m. and 12:30 - 2:00 p.m.
Important notes:
The exam is done as a group homework during the semester. For each lecture unit, students are given a practical task, combined with a short exam talk.
Minimum participants required: 5
