Our models of industrial installations are prepared based on physical, probabilistic and hybrid methods. Within physical modelling we use both commercial (e.g. Thermoflex by Thermoflow Inc.) and our in-house (e.g. based on EES platform) software. The physical models usually include substance and energy balances, mathematical representation of different phenomena (like of thermodynamic, chemistry, heat transfer and fluid mechanics nature), as well, devices’ performance maps and other necessary data and assumptions. The probabilistic models are usually based on regressive methods or neural networks and use measurement data which are available in Customer’s archives.
Prepared simulation model may be then used for:
We also create automated calculation programs that are then used autonomously by our Customers.
Examples of detailed simulation models prepared by Exergon for Customers:
