In this manual, each operation is explained in its respective chapters for steady state and dynamic modeling. A separate manual has been
devoted to the principles behind dynamic modeling. HYSYS is the first simulation package to offer dynamic flowsheet modeling backed up by
rigorous property package calculations. HYSYS has a number of unit operations, which can be used to assemble flowsheets. By connecting the proper unit operations and streams, you can model a wide variety of oil, gas, petrochemical, and chemical processes. Included in the available operations are those which are governed by thermodynamics and mass/energy balances, such as Heat Exchangers, Separators, and Compressors, and the logical operations like the Adjust, Set, and Recycle. A number of operations are also included specifically for dynamic modeling, such as the Controller, Transfer Function Block, and Selector. The Spreadsheet is a powerful tool, which provides a link to nearly any flowsheet variable, allowing you to model “special” effects not otherwise available in HYSYS.
