Aspen HYSYS Training: Module 6: Subflowsheet

This document provides an overview of subflowsheets in Aspen HYSYS. It explains that subflowsheets allow for a multi-level flowsheet architecture and simplified simulation of large, complex facilities. Examples are given of how to add a subflowsheet using different methods and what sources can be used for subflowsheets, including templates and previously exported objects. Guidelines are also provided for transferring streams between subflowsheets with different fluid packages and basis. Finally, a refrigeration unit case study is presented and the reader is instructed to develop a simplified refrigeration subflowsheet as an exercise.

Subflowsheet in Aspen HYSYS

The subflowsheet operation uses a multi-level flowsheet


architecture and provides a flexible and simplified method for
building a simulation.

It is very useful when simulating a large, complex processing


facility with a number of individual process units.

Example of Using Subflowsheet

How to Add Subflowsheet? (1st Method)

How to Add Subflowsheet? (2nd Method)

Source for Subflowsheet


1. Read an Existing Template: Using existing
template available in Hysys (.tpl)
2. Start With a Blank Flowsheet: Using our own
template
3. Paste Exported Objects: Hysys imports
previously exported object (.hfl) into a new
subflowsheet

Transfer Basis
Each subflowsheet can have its
own fluid property package. For
example, in main flowsheet using
Peng-Robinson and subflowsheet
using Amines package.
In this case, transfer basis in
subflowsheet shall be considered.
Transfer basis determines which
parameter that we want to keep
the value equal when we transfer
stream to different fluid package
