Why would SMS Demag start Why would SMS Demag start developing SimuSage?developing SimuSage?
• Integrated Thermodynamic Databank Systems such as FactSage are great tools for point calculations, range calculations, phase diagrams, etc.
• What about processes, i.e. multiple reactors interconnected via streams? Recycle/feedback streams? Dynamic behaviour? A library of other unit operations like mixers, splitters, heat exchangers?
• What about doing this quickly, with a minimum amount of coding? Including a user interface that somebody other than the developer can use?
• And what if you want to give your ready-made simulation to somebody else?

What is SimuSage?What is SimuSage?• SimuSage is a ChemApp-based set of Delphi
components for process simulation (flowsheeting) tasks

• Join our GTT workshop in June!– Herzogenrath, last week in May or first week in
June, 2008– user presentations– 1-day FactSage and SimuSage hands-on
sessions– For details, see our GTT-News newsletter at
www.gtt-technologies.de
• Look for the ChemApp and Simusage articles in the special IJMR issue 98(10) of this fall
