IntroductionAspen HYSYS is the industry leading simulation software for oil & gas, refining, and engineering processes. With an

extensive array of unit operations, specialized work environments, and a robust solver, modeling in Aspen HYSYS V8

enables the user to:

Improve equipment design and performance

Monitor safety and operational issues in the plant

Optimize processing capacity and operating conditions

Identify energy savings opportunities and reduce GHG emissions

Perform economic evaluation to realize savings in the process design

Aspen HYSYS V8 builds upon the legacy modeling environment, adding increased value with integrated products and

an improved user experience. The ease of use and flexibility of model calculations have been preserved, while new

capabilities have been added.

Scope of this DocumentThis document is intended as a simple getting started guide. It will cover the process of creating a new case, setting up

component lists and fluid packages, and working in the simulation environment to build the model. Integrated features

and specific topics such as energy analysis, economic evaluation, and EDR integration will be discussed at a high level.

For a more in-depth understanding of these topics we provide links to further documentation and training materials

developed specifically by the AspenTech experts in those areas.

We encourage you to take advantage of our full range of training resources including:

The AspenTech support website (support. aspentech.com)

AspenTech online training modules which can be accessed from the Get Started ribbon

Aspentech courses AspenTech business consultants

Overview of the New User InterfaceAspen HYSYS V8 uses the new common shell component to manage the windows and forms in the user interface.

This is the same shell that has been adopted by many other AspenTech products. The shell provides an interactive work

environment that offers the user full control over the screen display.

Floating forms, flowsheets, the model palette, and other objects can now be docked inside of a window or tabbed as a

separate window as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Overview of New UI

The navigation pane shows the hierarchy of and provides access to all available forms. Environment buttons allow for

easy navigation between case properties and simulation. Contextual ribbons bring the most commonly used commands

to the surface of the workspace.

Window and Form Controls

You can click and drag tabs to one side of the workspace to display them side by side or drag them out of the Aspen

HYSYS window entirely (even to a second monitor).

Multiple tabs can be open at once; clicking on a tab will make it the active window and will reveal contextual ribbons and

objects. Each tab displays the name of the form it contains. Sub-forms, such as a column subflowsheet, also display the

name of the parent folder or object (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Tabbed Windows

To manage the number of tabs, you can right-click on a tab and select Close or Close All But This. If you click and drag

the tabs off of the row or right click and select Floating, they turn into freestanding forms. To create separate window

groups within the workspace, place the pointer over a window tab, then hold down the left mouse button while dragging

the pointer into one of the boxes superimposed on the workspace, as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3. Dock a Window

Overview of the Ribbon

In Aspen HYSYS V8, options and operations are displayed in a convenient ribbon. As in earlier versions of Aspen HYSYS,

the File menu contains commands for opening and saving files. The most frequently used commands are together on

the Home tab (Figure 4). To find the current location of any of the commands from previous versions, see Mapping of

Commands to the Ribbon in the Aspen HYSYS help section (or click the link on the new Getting Started ribbon).

Figure 4. Aspen HYSYS Home Ribbon

Click any of the tabs on the ribbon to access a set of related commands. These commands are split into groups by

common functionality.

Some groups have a small arrow button located at the bottom right corner of the group labeled the Dialog Box Launcher

(Figure 4). Clicking this button opens a dialog box with additional commands.

Some of the ribbon tabs are contextual. These tabs are only shown when the commands they contain are relevant. For

instance, the Flowsheet/Modify tab is only visible when the flowsheet is the active window. The environment ribbons

themselves are also contextual. Switching between the Properties and Simulation environments will switch to the

associated ribbon.

The Zoom Controls

There are a set of Zoom controls on the lower right side of the main window. Moving the slider adjusts the zoom level.

Click the (+) or (-) buttons to zoom the active window in or out by 10%, click the zoom fill button to maximize

the view in the available space, or click the zoom factor to select a preset zoom level. The zoom bar acts on the process

flowsheet, most forms, and on plots (Figure 9).

Figure 9. Zoom Controls

Copy and Paste, Drag and Drop

Grids forms in the new Aspen HYSYS user interface support copy and paste and drag and drop functions for variables

from the workbook and object worksheets to forms that require input variables such as case studies and data tables.

Copy and paste can be done by right-clicking or using the Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V shortcuts. To drag and drop, click and hold

the mouse button over the grey tile of the variable you wish to transfer and drag to the grey tile of the location you wish to

add it to. A plus sign will appear next to the mouse when you are able to move or drop a variable (Figure 10). For certain

forms, you may need to click the Add button before you can drop a variable.

Figure 10. Drag and Drop

Environment Buttons

Aspen HYSYS has two user environments: Properties and Simulation. The environments have specialized user interfaces

for performing different tasks. The Properties environment displays all of the tasks related to configuring the underlying

physical properties associated with a model. This environment includes workflows related to finding property data,

regressing and estimating property data, and customizing the methods and models used to calculate properties.

The Simulation environment is focused on tasks related to building and using process models. It includes everything you

need to create and edit a process flowsheet, analyze a process, etc. Each environment has a unique subset of contextual

ribbons.

When switching between the two environments, the state of each is preserved, including the active ribbon tab and any

forms, plots, and other windows that may be open. Some of the forms and folders in the Properties environment have

been reorganized for easier access. Find more information on the Properties and Simulation environments in the following

sections.

Starting a New CaseOpen ASPEN HYSYS from the Windows start menu by clicking on the AspenTech folder > Process Modeling V8 > Aspen

HYSYS > .

On a Windows 7 machine, we recommend that you pin Aspen HYSYS to the Start Menu by right clicking on the Aspen

HYSYS item from the All Programs list and choosing Pin to Start Menu. This will make it easy to access Aspen HYSYS

directly the next time you want to open it.

When Aspen HYSYS opens, you will see the Start Page as well as Recent Cases and Get Started Materials. To create a

new case, click on New in the top, left box or File > New.

The Properties EnvironmentAll new cases start in the Properties environment. This is where you will select the components to be used in your model

and set the calculation methods for physical properties (fluid package). The combination of a component list and a fluid

package is called a property package. You cannot enter the Simulation environment until at least one property package

has been created and, if you have multiple component lists, each one has been assigned a fluid package.


10/27

Creating a Component List

The first step to building a model is to create Component Lists which collectively contains all of the components that

will be used in your process. Later, when you specify a stream in the simulation environment, you will need to choose a

component list for that stream. It may be helpful to create multiple component lists in cases where streams have very

different compositions.

Aspen HYSYS supports components both from its own databank and Aspen Properties.

To create an Aspen HYSYS component list, click on the Add Button at the bottom of the grid. To create an Aspen

Properties component list, click on the dropdown arrow and choose Aspen Properties (Figure 11).

Figure 11. Select a Component List Type

Now, use the search form to select which type of components to add to the list. When you type in the Search For box,

Aspen HYSYS will automatically populate matches in the grid below. Hitting Enter or clicking Add will add the selected

component to the list. You can use the shift and control keys to add multiple components at a time and you can reorder

the list by dragging and dropping cells (Figure 12).

Figure 12. Add Components

Selecting a Fluid Package

You must associate each component list with a Fluid Package. Click on the Fluid Packages folder in the navigation pane or

on the Fluid Package icon from the Home ribbon.

Click on the Add button to add an Aspen HYSYS fluid package. Next, click on the dropdown arrow for the additional

options of Aspen Properties and COM Thermo (Figure 13).


11/27


10


Figure 13. Select a Database for the Fluid Package

By default the fluid package created will be of the Aspen HYSYS type. Use the Selection dropdown box to choose another

list. In the Property Package Selection box, click on the fluid package that you want to use to complete this property

package setup (Figure 14).

Figure 14. Choose a Fluid Package Type

To specify another fluid package, click on the folder from the navigation pane or the icon on the ribbon.

The Simulation Environment- Building the FlowsheetWith property packages specified, you are now ready to begin creating your model. Click on the Simulation environment

button on the bottom left panel (Figure 15).

Figure 15. Simulation Environment Button

You will see the object palette appear on top of a blank flowsheet. You can start by adding either a material stream or a

unit operation from the palette.


12/27



11

Adding Flowsheet Objects: The Model Palette

Unit operations on the model palette are organized into six tabs, the most frequently used operations are located on the

Common tab. There are also tabs for refining, dynamics, columns, upstream, and custom (Figure 16).

Material streams can be added using the blue arrow and energy streams can be added using the red arrow. If you close

the palette you can re-open it from the View Ribbon, Flowsheet/Modify ribbon, or by using the F4 keyboard shortcut.

Figure 16. The Model Palette

Add an Object from the Palette to the Flowsheet

To place a unit or material stream on the flowsheet, click the icon in the palette and move the mouse over the flowsheet

to where you would like to place the object. You will see that the mouse has a plus sign next to it, indicating that when

you click the mouse again, the object will be added.

Specifying Flowsheet Objects The Aspen HYSYS Solver and

Convergence

The Aspen HYSYS solver is uniquely flexible and very robust; when the solver is active, it automatically responds to inputentered for any object in the flowsheet and back calculates parameters for the entire process. Visual indicators display

the status of all flowsheet objects. You can see the status of an object both on the flowsheet itself and on the status bar at

the bottom of an object form (Figure 17).


13/27


12


Figure 17. Visual Indicators

Color indicators for flowsheet objects are as follows:

Red The object is missing a basic requirement (such as a stream connection) or the object contains errors.

Yellow All connections are complete but the block is underspecified or contains warnings.

Green This unit has solved without errors.

If a stream is over-specified you will likely see a dialogue box that reports a consistency error. If a unit is over-specified

you will see a warning appear in the status bar.

Specify Material Streams

Open the material stream form by double-clicking on the stream arrow. The form will open to the Workbook tab >

Conditions form. On the Worksheet tab, enter enough parameters to fully define both the streams composition and

its thermodynamic state. You can input information in any order; Aspen HYSYS will automatically respond to new

information and update other conditions that it calculates (Figure 18).

Figure 18. Complete Stream Specification


14/27



13

Specify Composition Manually

Click on the Composition form in the Worksheet list. Type a value into any cell and the Input Composition form will

appear. On the right, you can select which unit of data to enter and on the bottom you can use the controls to erase or

normalize values entered. Type the values for each component in the cell next to their names (Figure 19).

Figure 19. Input Composition Form

Define from Other Stream

You also have the option to define a streams conditions from another stream. Click the Define from other stream

button on the stream form to enable this. Choose which stream to transfer from in the Available Streams box. You can

transfer all data from another stream or choose specific information to transfer (Figure 20).

Figure 20. Define from Other Streams


15/27


14


Specify Unit OperationsDouble click on any unit to open the form. You will see that the status indicator, as well as the object itself, is red. Add

connections for input and output on the Design > Connections tab. Then move to the Design > Parameters tab to specify

size, pressure drop, duty, and whatever else is required for that particular unit. See below for more details.

Step 1. Add Connections

Ad d Connections us ing the un it oper at ion Form

Click inside the Inlets grid and type the name of the inlet stream. Repeat for Vapor and Liquid Outlets. This is one way to

create and connect a stream (Figure 21).

Figure 21. Add Connections from the Input Form

Add Connections on the Flowsheet

Click the blue arrow on the palette to select it. Click on theflowsheet in the location you want to place the stream. Deselect

objects by clicking on a blank area of the flowsheet. Now, view

attachment ports by either holding down the control key or

clicking the Attach icon on the Flowsheet/Modify ribbon. Click

on one of the ports, drag the mouse, and release over the inlet

port of a unit operation or another stream (Figure 22).

Figure 22. Add Connections from the Flowsheet

Step 2. Input Parameters

Open the unit operation form. Click on the Design tab > Parameters Form. Depending on the unit operation, there may

be input boxes that are blank or marked empty, radio buttons, or other input to complete. You must specify enough

parameters so that the flowsheet has zero degrees of freedom and can solve.

15

Flowsheet ControlsWhile you are building your flowsheet, you may find it helpful to use the controls provided on the Flowsheet/Modify

ribbon and the right-mouse-button menu of flowsheet objects (Figure 23). We will cover some of the most commonly

used functions here.

The Flowsheet Modify Ribbon

Figure 23. Flowsheet/Modify ribbon

Changing Object OrientationThese controls are on the left side of the flowsheet ribbon (in previous versions they were found in the right-mouse-

button menu).

Managing Connections

At tach Mo de

Using attach mode is the equivalent to holding down the control key; all available object ports will be displayed as you

move the mouse on the flowsheet.

Auto Attach

When auto attach is selected, you can do the following:

(1) Make sure all other objects are deselected and add a unit operation. When the operation is added to the

flowsheet, new streams will be defined for the input and output of that object.

(2) Before adding your unit, select a stream or object that you would like connected to it. The stream will

automatically be connected as the input to that operation. For a connected object, a dialogue box will appear

asking which stream from the first object you would like to connect to the newly added one. This is particularly

useful if you have many streams as the input to a new object, such as a mixer.


17/27


16


Find Object

The Find Object button, located in the Tools group of the Flowsheet/Modify tab, can be used both to locate any object

on a large flowsheet and to directly open any object form. Click on the icon from the Flowsheet ribbon to open the Object

Navigator.

The choices on the Object Navigator are as follows:

Find:

Open the form for any object or group of objects. For single objects, type in the full object name. For a group of objects,

type an asterisk, a common character, and another asterisk. For instance, to open the forms for all exchangers with a

number in the 300s, click Find and type *e3* (Figure 24).

View:

Open the form for the selected object in the Unit Operations list.

Locate:

Navigate to the selected Unit Operation in the flowsheet. This command will move the flowsheet within the visible area to

the location of the selected object.

Figure 24. Find Object

Flowsheet HierarchyIn large complex flowsheets, such as the LNG plant in Figure 25, it is often useful to organize processes into smaller

stages. In this case, blocks represent a particular group of operations. If you double-click on any of these blocks you will

be able to enter the sub-flowsheet environment using a button at the bottom of the form. You can also right-click on the

block and use the Open subflowsheet as new tab selection. Inside the subflowsheet you will see only objects related

to that particular part of the process. If any changes are made in this environment they will not be passed to the main

flowsheet until you navigate back to the parentthis may cause some objects in the subflowsheet to be temporarily

unsolved. Use the View Parent Ribbon button to navigate back to the main flowsheet.

Figure 25. Example of Flowsheet Hierarchy

Display Options

Use the features in this category to change the color schemes for the process flowsheet and workbook tables and to hide

or display objects and tables. An example of one of the PFD color schemes, Temperature, is shown in Figure 26.

Figure 26. Conditional Formatting

The Flowsheet Right-Mouse-Button (RMB) Menu

The right-mouse click menu allows you to perform all of the standard commands for objects such as cut, copy, paste, and

delete. It also contains a number of extended functions such as Import/Export, open a form as a new tab, and change the

operations icon (Figure 27).

Figure 27. The Flowsheet RMB Menu

Layered Products and New Integrated CapabilitiesA major focus in Aspen HYSYS V8 is more seamless integration of layered tools. Dynamics and Petroleum Refining

(formerly Aspen RefSYS) have their own contextual ribbons. Energy Analysis and Economic Evaluation can be activated

within the simulation to automatically calculate the energy cost and savings potential and the equipment cost for the

flowsheet. Simple heat exchanger models can now be automatically sized as rigorous EDR models which are then

embedded in the flowsheet. An overview of some of the integrated capabilities is provided below. For more information,

see the Additional Resources section.

Activated Energy and Economic Analysis

Activated Analysis is intended to guide design decisions through automatic energy and economic analysis. The Activated

Analysis panel displays key performance indicators which are recalculated each time you change or run the simulation

case (Figure 28).


20/27



19

Figure 28. Activated Analysis

Energy Analysis

Activated energy analysis can be used to calculate current energy costs and potential savings; it can also automatically

generate suggestions to improve the heat exchanger network design for the flowsheet. In the Energy Analysis

Environment, you can view details of the current heat exchanger network and create custom scenarios for energy saving

designs.

Economic Analysis

The Activated Economic Analysis pane displays the relative capital cost and utility cost for the process. The reported

values are based on calculations from Aspen Process Economic Analyzer.

Autosizing Rigorous EDR Heat Exchanger ModelsNow, you can automatically convert any simple end point or steady state rating Shell&Tube or AirCooled heat exchanger

model into a fully rigorous Aspen Exchanger Design & Rating (EDR) model inside Aspen HYSYS. To do this, add the

appropriate unit operation from the model palette and double-click to open the operation form. On the Design tab >

Parameters form use the Size Rigorous Shell&Tube or the Size Rigorous Air Cooler button to auto-size the exchanger or

click the dropdown arrow to open Interactive Sizing using the EDR Sizing Console (Figure 29). EDR sizing optimization

will determine the lowest cost design that meets process constraints and updates the model into your Aspen HYSYS

flowsheet. Templates may be used to impose company-specific design criteria. A manual workflow is also available for

full control of the design. You can view rigorous exchanger results on the Rigorous tab.

EDR models for Plate Fin and FiredHeater can also be embedded inside a HYSYS simulation. To utilize EDR design, choose

EDR PlateFin or EDR FiredHeater from the Model Selection dropdown list on the exchanger Parameters form.

Figure 29. Autosize a Rigorous Shell&Tube Exchanger

Dynamics

Dynamic simulation mode addresses non-steady-state processes, such as plant start-up and shut-down (Figure 30). It

can be used to test control systems, monitor safety considerations, and assess performance problems. In Aspen HYSYS

Dynamics V8, controls are located on the Dynamics contextual ribbon. Converting your model from steady-state to

dynamic requires additional input on the unit operation forms. Refer to Additional Resources for more information.

Petroleum Refining (Formerly Aspen RefSYS)

Petroleum Assays

Petroleum Assays can be inputted in the Properties environment. From the navigation pane, double-click on the

Petroleum Assays folder and click the Add button at the bottom of the window. You will need to first select an Assay

source; choose specified if you want to enter data manually. Next, choose a Fluid Package from the drop down. You will

now see that Setup form where you can enter the laboratory data for the crude oil, including property information for the

bulk of the curves (Figure 31). A built-in assay library is also available, which brings assay data into the Petroleum Assay

Macro-Cut table where it can be characterized. The unique architecture of Aspen HYSYS Petroleum Refining makes

it possible to use a single component list across all the assays in the model and propagates the properties across the

flowsheet enabling crude selection workflows involving multiple assays.

Figure 31. Petroleum Assays

Refining Unit Operations

Refining related unit operations, including refining reactors, are readily available in the model palette. Click on the Refining

contextual tab to view the full list of available operations (Figure 32).

Figure 32. Refining Reactor Units in Simulation

Aspen HYSYS Upstream: Pipeline and Hydraulics OperationsAspen HYSYS Upstream models pipeline and hydraulic networks as both steady-state and dynamic modes, using

industry standard methods and techniques. Upstream operations have their own modeling environment, contextual

ribbon, and contextual palette; therefore, all upstream operations are contained within upstream sub-flowsheets (Figure

33). To add an Aspen Hydraulics subflowsheet to an Aspen HYSYS case, click on the Upstream tab on the main palette

and then click on the Aspen Hydraulics icon and add the block to the flowsheet. Double-click on the Hydraulics block to

open the form and click on the Show Flowsheet button on the bottom.

Figure 33. Hydraulics Block - Main Flowsheet and Hydraulics Sub-flowsheet

When the Hydraulics flowsheet is active (tab is selected) you will see the Piping Network ribbon tab and hydraulics

palette, which you can use to add piping parts to the subflowsheet.

You can open a pipe form to perform flow assurance analysis - analyze hydrates formation and corrosion or erosion rates

in the pipeline. An overview of some of the capabilities is captured in Figure 34.
