Screening Task: Flowsheeting using DWSIM and OpenModelica

NOTE: This task has been divided in two parts. It is mandatory to complete both the parts as described below for this screening task to be considered as completed.

Part A:

  1. Complete 1 flowsheet using DWSIM. To know more about DWSIM Flowsheeting Project, click here.
  2. Propose a DWSIM Flowsheet you wish to simulate using proposal form here.
  3. Please make sure that the proposed flowsheet is not under the Completed Flowsheets and Flowsheets in Progress.
  4. Your proposal will be reviewed and approved/disapproved (within one working day).
  5. After receiving the approval of your proposal through email, you can proceed to complete the flowsheet.

Part B:

  1. Complete 1 flowsheet using OpenModelica using the Simulator package.
  2. Detailed guidelines on how to use OpenModelica Simulator package along with few examples are avilable here.
  3. Propose an OpenModelica Flowsheet you wish to simulate using proposal form here.
  4. Please make sure that the proposed flowsheet is not under the OpenModelica Flowsheets in Progress.
  5. Your proposal will be reviewed and approved/disapproved (within one working day).
  6. After receiving the approval of your proposal through email, you can proceed to complete the flowsheet.

Technical Requirements:
Basic knowledge in any simulation package like DWSIM/ASPEN Plus/PROII, etc typically used in Chemical Engineering & allied branches.

Procedure to submit screening task:

Part A:

  1. Create your DWSIM Flowsheet for the approved proposal topic and save the file with .dwxml/.dwxmz extension.
  2. Follow the naming convention while saving the DWSIM file: "Flowsheet_FlowsheetTopic". For Example: "Flowsheet_AceticAcidProduction"
  3. Write one page abstract describing the process in the flowsheet and save the file as pdf document
  4. Follow the naming convention while saving the abstract file: "Abstract__FlowsheetTopic". For Example: "Abstract_AceticAcidProduction"
  5. Create an archive comprising both the files with .zip extension and follow the naming convention for the zip file as "FlowsheetName.zip". For Example: "AceticAcidProduction.zip"

Part B:

  1. Create your OpenModelica Flowsheet for the approved flowsheet proposal topic and save the file with .mo extension.
  2. Follow the naming convention while saving the OpenModelica file: "Flowsheet_FlowsheetTopic". For Example: "Flowsheet_AceticAcidProduction"
  3. Write a one page abstract describing the process in the flowsheet and save the file as pdf document
  4. Follow the naming convention while saving the abstract file: "Abstract_FlowsheetTopic". For Example: "Abstract_AceticAcidProduction"
  5. Create an archive for both the files with .zip extension and follow the naming convention for the zip file as "FlowsheetName.zip". For Example: "AceticAcidProduction.zip"

SUBMISSION INTERFACE:

  1. Login to https://courses.fossee.in/ using your registered credentials.
  2. Click on DWSIM FSF 2019 available under Courses page.

Evaluation Criteria:

Following criteria will be considered while evaluating the flowsheet:

  1. Complexity of the flowsheet
    1. Accuracy of results obtained

    Note: If not selected for the fellowship, you are still eligible for Flowsheeting Project certificate and honorarium upon successful completion of the flowsheets. Honorarium amount depends on the quality and complexity of the flowsheets.
