Released as a BETA version in Build 139.36061.

General Description

The ChemApp Tank model is used in Dynamic mode to emulate a perfectly mixed tank with surge. The model allows the user to 'call' the ChemApp solver to determine the state of the tank content.

The results can be applied to the tank content or just performed as a side calculation (similar to use of the ChemApp Side Calc Model).

Notes

1. The user MUST have added and configured a ChemApp Model Configuration unit in the SysCAD project before this unit can function.
2. The user MUST have installed a version of ChemApp on their computer to make use of the ChemApp functionality in SysCAD. Please see gtt-technologies.de for more information.

Inputs and Outputs

Label	Required / Optional	Input / Output	Number of Connections		Description
			Min	Max
Feed	1 Required	Input	1	10	The feed to the Tank.
Overflow	Required	Output	1	1	Tank overflow stream.
Product	Optional	Output	0	5	Outlet stream/s from the Tank.
Vent	Optional	Output	0	1	Vent Stream (Vapour Only).

The ChemApp Tank can be incorporated into a SysCAD flowsheet, it can be connected with SysCAD inlet and outlet streams.

Model Theory

The ChemApp Tank Model uses the ChemApp algorithms and data to determine the status of the solution.

Mapping of the SysCAD to ChemApp streams is done via Species Mapping.

The ChemApp Tank can be incorporated into a SysCAD flowsheet, it can be connected with SysCAD inlet and outlet streams.

1. User connects the ChemApp Tank with SysCAD input streams,
2. The SysCAD feed stream(s) using SysCAD species is converted into ChemApp "Input" using ChemApp Species. The species mapping is defined in the corresponding ChemApp Model Configuration unit model.
3. The ChemApp Tank calls the ChemApp algorithms to determine the status of the mixture using the converted ChemApp "input" data.
4. The ChemApp results are displayed in the "output" tab using ChemApp species.
   • If the ChemApp Tank is in Side Calc mode, the results are NOT converted into SysCAD species. (SysCAD stream outlet = sum of SysCAD inlet streams, no change will occur)
   • If the ChemApp Tank is in Reactor mode, then the results are converted back into SysCAD species. Please see Species Mapping for more information.

NOTES:

• The Input, Output and Diff tab pages are displayed using ChemApp species, as defined in the database (.cst or .dat) specified in the corresponding ChemApp Model Configuration unit model.
• The species used in the SysCAD project are shown on the optional Sp pages, shown as part of the QFeed, QBypass, QUnmapped, QRxnProdBypass and QProd pages.
• The calculations performed are similar to using ChemApp directly, except the contents of the SysCAD stream are mapped to equivalent ChemApp species using the settings defined in the ChemApp Model Configuration unit model.

Workflow

The suggested workflow for configuring the model is:

1. Make sure the project contains at least one of the ChemApp Model Configuration model, and the model is loaded with the correct ChemApp database you would like to use for the ChemApp Tank model.
2. On the ChemAppTank tab page, configure the model - methods, pressures, etc.
3. On the TCE tab page, select the correct ChemModel (to match step 1) (Note: In older builds, this selection was made on the ChemAppTank tab page).
4. Select other TCE options (Bypass, CFE, etc.)
5. Perform an equilibrium calculation by pressing Solve in SysCAD.
6. The Results are displayed in the CHEMAPPResults and Output tabs.
7. Check and fix any species mapping issues. (ChemApp resulting species may change if the operating conditions change, so it is likely a change of temperature or feed composition will result in different ChemApp species.)

Material will not flow out of the pipe unless the level in the tank reaches the height of the pipe. Notes If multiple pipes are connected at the same height, then depending on capacities, the behaviour for calculation of flows for each pipe (and spill) may be undefined. It is recommended to have each outlet pipe at a different level. (For example, when 2 outlet pipes have them at 99.8% and 99.9%.) The IO connections are sorted in the order of connection height. Therefore, if you make a change to the IO connection height, please double check the IO "Link name" before configuring the IO, as the IO display order may have changed.

	Total Mass	The Batch functionality is enabled and the required batch size is defined in terms of Mass flow. Further fields will become visible if this option is selected allowing the user to set the required batch mass.
	Total Volume	The Batch functionality is enabled and the required batch size is defined in terms of Volume flow. Further fields will become visible if this option is selected allowing the user to set the required batch volume.
The following fields will be visible if Total Mass is selected as the Batch method.
M.BatchAddition	Input	The Mass of the required Batch. This amount of material will be allowed to flow out of the pipe at the rate specified in Qm.Capacity or Qv.Capacity. When this value is set the amount of material will be added to the amount of material already in M.BatchRemaining (the field below), and then this field will revert to 0.
M.BatchRemaining	Calc / Input	The Mass of material currently in a Batch, i.e. the amount of material in a Batch that still has to flow through the pipe. Normally this value is initialised at the start of a run and then it is calculated by SysCAD from the amount required in M.BatchAddition and the amount already delivered by the batch. However, the user may set this value and hence override the calculated Batch amount at any stage. If the users sets this as Undefined (or '*') this is equivalent to any infinite Batch and therefore the flow through the pipe will not be restricted.
M.BatchTotal	Display	The Total Mass that has flowed through the pipe using the Batch addition method.
The following fields will be visible if Total Volume is selected as the Batch method.
V.BatchAddition	Input	The Volume of the required Batch. This amount of material will be allowed to flow out of the pipe at the rate specified in Qm.Capacity or Qv.Capacity. When this value is set the amount of material will be added to the amount of material already in V.BatchRemaining (the field below), and then this field will revert to 0.
V.BatchRemaining	Calc / Input	The Volume of material currently in a Batch, i.e. the amount of material in a Batch that still has to flow through the pipe. Normally this value is initialised at the start of a run and then it is calculated by SysCAD from the amount required in V.BatchAddition and the amount already delivered by the batch. However, the user may set this value and hence override the calculated Batch amount at any stage. If the users sets this as Undefined (or '*') this is equivalent to any infinite Batch and therefore the flow through the pipe will not be restricted.

	Busy	A Batch method has been selected, there is material remaining in the Batch, and hence there is flow in the pipe due to the Batch.
	Stop Flow	A Batch method has been selected, there is NO material remaining in the Batch, and hence there is no flow in the pipe, i.e. the Batch will prevent any flow in the pipe.
BatchClearOnEmpty	Tickbox	If enabled, any remaining batch amount will be cleared on Empty action command.
BatchUsePreset	Tickbox	This enables the use of Preset for the Batch amount.
