Unit Type: {{{TPS}}}Reactor - The first tab page in the access window will have this name.
Tag (Long/Short) | Input / Calc | Description/Calculated Variables / Options |
Tag | Display | This name tag may be modified with the change tag option. |
Condition | Display | OK if no errors/warnings, otherwise lists errors/warnings. |
ConditionCount | Display | The current number of errors/warnings. If condition is OK, returns 0. |
GeneralDescription / GenDesc | Display | This is an automatically generated description for the unit. If the user has entered text in the 'EqpDesc' field on the Info tab (see below), this will be displayed here. If this field is blank, then SysCAD will display the UnitType or SubClass. |
Requirements | ||
On | Tickbox | This allows the user to disable the {{{TPS}}} calculations, and the unit becomes a simple conduit with no calculations. |
Vent.SolidsMethod | None | No solids will be sent to the Vent stream. |
Solids to Vent | The user can specify a fraction of the solids in the product to be sent to the Vent stream (if connected). | |
Vent Solids Fraction | The user can specify the fraction of solids in the Vent stream (if connected). | |
SolidsToVent | Input | Only visible if Vent.SolidsMethod = Solids to Vent. The fraction of the solids in the product to be sent to the Vent stream (if connected). |
Vent.SolidFracReqd | Input | Only visible if Vent.SolidsMethod = Vent Solids Fraction. The fraction of solids in the Vent stream (if connected). |
OperatingP - NOTE: this pressure is applied to the (combined) feed, before sub-models (if any). | ||
Method | AutoDetect | If there are any liquids AND no vapours present in the feed, outlet streams will take the highest pressure of the feeds. Else (e.g. some vapours present) outlet streams will take the lowest pressure of the feeds. |
LowestFeed | Outlet streams will take the lowest pressure of the feeds. | |
HighestFeed | Outlet streams will take the highest pressure of the feeds. | |
Atmospheric | Outlet streams will be at Atmospheric Pressure. The atmospheric pressure is calculated by SysCAD based on the user defined elevation (default elevation is at sea level = 101.325 kPa). The elevation can be changed on the Environment tab page of the Plant Model. | |
RequiredP | Outlet streams will be at the user specified pressure. | |
IgnoreLowMassFlow / IgnoreLowQm | Tick Box | This option is only visible if the AutoDetect, LowestFeed or HighestFeed methods are chosen. When calculating the outlet pressure and temperature of the tank, SysCAD will ignore the low flow feed streams should this option be selected. The low flow limit is set in the field below. |
LowMassFlowFrac / LowQmFrac | Input | This field is only visible if the IgnoreLowQm option is selected. This is the amount any stream contributes to the total flow. For example, if the total feed to the tank is 10 kg/s, and this field is set to 1%. Then any feed streams with less than 0.1 kg/s will be ignored in the pressure calculations. |
PressureReqd / P_Reqd | Input | This field is only visible if the RequiredP method is chosen. This is user specified pressure. |
Result | Calc | The actual pressure used for the sum of the feeds which will also be the outlet pressure (unless further model options change the pressure). |
EB (Evaluation Block) ... | ||
EvalSequence | Calc | The sequence in which the sub models (which are part of the evaluation blocks) will be calculated. The sequence is determined by the priority selection for the individual sub-models. Note: If the user chooses On-AutoSequence then SysCAD will determine the sequence of the sub-models. The sequence followed will be MU1, MU2, etc., RB. |
Makeups | Input | The number of makeup blocks required. Extra dropdown options Makeup1, Makeup2, etc. will be added to allow these to be switched on. |
MakeupX | List | This can be used to switch the Makeup Block (MU) on or off and prioritise it in relation to the other sub-models. If this is 'On' then the associated page, MUX becomes visible and may be configured. Note: This field is only visible if the entry for 'Makeups' is greater than 0. If there is one makeup then X=1. If there are two makeups, then X=1 and X=2, etc. |
Options | ||
ShowQFeed | Tickbox | Allows the user to view the QFeed and associated tab pages, showing the properties of the combined feed stream. See Material Flow Section. This will be prior to any sub-model (e.g. reactions) actions or {{{TPS}}} calculations. |
ShowQTCEFeed | Tickbox | Allows the user to view the QTCEFeed and associated tab pages, showing the properties of the combined feed stream before {{{TPS}}} calculations. See Material Flow Section. This will be after the actions of any sub-models (e.g. reactions). |
ShowQProd | Tickbox | Only visible if Model = Reactor on the TEC tab page. Allows the user to view the QProd and associated tab pages, showing the properties of the products. See Material Flow Section. This will be after the actions of any sub-models and {{{TPS}}} calculations. |
