Synthesis and physical properties

Being able to represent components and create- ‘synthesize’ - streams within Petro-SIM accurately from plant or predicted data from a reactor simulation is key to representing feed/product properties and predicting and optimizing plant performance. The following enhancements have been made in Petro-SIM 7.7:

• Update to ‘Balanced Estimation’ (BE) method for naphtha component synthesis
• Set BE method as default for all new cases
• Viscosity Grade property added with support for ISO grade table.
• Super TRAPP viscosity method added
• New Cracked Furnace stream type added for use with Coker Furnaces and VGO Crackers
• Added GERG variants as property packages options
• Added polymer surface tension property
